I got into a long debate with someone who wouldn’t accept my claim that pi is 3.
My reasoning was that 3 is accurate to the number of decimal places it’s quoted to, which is all you ever can say of any given value of pi. Like, pi might not be exactly 3, but it’s not 3.14159265358979323846 either, because both values still have infinity digits missing.
Three, no more, no less. Three is the number of pi. Four should not be pi, neither two. Five is right out.

Oh yes! 3!
