Pi (π) is a numerical constant frequently used in mathematical calculations, defined as the ratio between a circle's circumference and its diameter. This special number arises in unusual circumstances in the Homestar Runner universe, however, usually without any obvious mathematical significance. When it appears, it is often expressed as an approximation.
