  • Traditional Pi, to the number of decimals this calculator can do, gives a radius for the 44 inch circle of 7.002. If more decimals are considered, the radius will become less, moving closer and closer to 7. IE, traditional Pi is 'variable' as to radius, whereas 22/7 is constant and exact.

  • Spectacularly wrong! Pi is a mathematical constant that has nothing at all to do with 22/7. If the ancients believed such, they were also wrong but can be forgiven. You, on the other hand, have no excuse. I urge you to take down this video before you become an object of ridicule. Honestly, sir.

  • @ucsteve Yes, I know this seems pretty wild Steve. See my coment here about the 'variability' of traditional Pi, as opposed to the precision of 22/7. Those ancients may have been smarter that we give credit for.

  • Quite a lot of talk about a circle of 44 circumference divided into 7 parts, but did you forget that Pi is supposed to be a way to calculate back and forth from the straight lines of the diameter (2r) to the circularI Yes, until a hurried little minute at the end where you came back to that, while I was typing this. Expand that last minute a LOT, and delete most of the first 8 minutes of this. The numbers seem to carry you away, and you don't seem to be in control of your calculations.
