    Just in case anyone missed it, but today is π-day.
    Dunno if this could be considered a literary day, but you'd need all
    existing and non-existing books in the world to overwrite them with π's decimal expansion or what's it called.
    Yet in principle one could serve π-pie at exact π-time, day-hour-second-etc-wise.

    Pi Day (March 14th)

    Celebrates the mathematical constant pi (π), which represents the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.

    The date (3/14) reflects the first three digits of pi (3.14).

    Popular ways to celebrate include eating pie (a delicious pun!), memorizing decimal places of pi, and attending pi-themed events.



    Pi-lingual == A play on words combining "pi" with "multilingual."


    It can refer to:

    Knowing or using multiple representations of pi (e.g., mathematical notation, decimal expansion).
