Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle, to its diameter. In ancient times, it was approximated by inscribed and circumscribed polygons - the more sides the polygon had, the more accurate the approximation would be. Nowadays, infinite series are know that let you calculate pi. One well-known series of this type is:pi / 4 = 1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + 1/9 - 1/11...

This series doesn't converge quickly; that means that you need to calculate lots of terms to get a certain degree of precision. Fortunately, other series are known that converge more quickly.

Who calculated the value of pi?

It is still being calculated. Supa-Dupa computers have calculated 'pi' to at least 50 billion places and still going. The ancients would have calculated 'pi' to at least 10 places. or more. estimates for pi are 3.14, 3.1416, 3.14159 or 22/7 They are all approximations. pi is an irrational number, which means it cannot be converted to a ratio/quotient. The Classical Greek mathematician , Archimedes, calculated 'pi' to a degrees of estimation.
