Each year, the 14th of March is celebrated by scientifically-minded folks for two good reasons. First, it’s Einstein’s birthday (happy 135th, Albert!). Second, it’s Pi Day, because 3/14 is the closest calendrical approximation we have to the decimal expansion of pi, π =3.1415927….
Both of these features — Einstein and pi — are loosely related by playing important roles in science and mathematics. But is there any closer connection?
Of course there is. We need look no further than Einstein’s equation. I mean Einstein’s real equation — not E=mc2
