It's Pi Day! March 14th is the day that mathematicians everywhere celebrate with pie and other treats. But what is pi? And who invented it? In 1647‚ William Oughtred coined the name and used it as a symbol‚ and it was not until 1737 that Leonhard Euler first used it to represent it.
March 14, Albert Einstein’s birth date. In some parts of the world this date is also known as Pi Day.
In November 2019, in its General Conference, UNESCO, announced Pi Day as the International Day of Mathematics.
