Finding Pi



Prompts = Circumference, Share, Store

Stuart couldn’t sit still in a classroom setting. Which is why, when learning about the ratio pi (the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter), he decided to calculate it himself. If some ancient guys could get it to 3.14 using ancient tools, he could do at least as well.

It’s why, when he shared his story with his local community, all the hardware stores donated supplies to form and measure the biggest circle they could.

Stuart didn’t care they ended up in the Guinness Book of World Records. He was happy to accurately calculate pi to six digits.
