Pi, or π, is the ratio between the circumference and the diameter of a circle. The numerical value of π depends on context: which circle is under consideration, and how precise are one's measurements?

The traditional concept

Standard mathematics says that π is the ratio between the circumference and the diameter of a perfect circle. Consequently, π is an irrational number.
