>>12386687Only in base 10 is it a weird number. It is because pi is not designed to be represented in base 10 so when you represent it in base ten it looks weird.
For example, 0 degrees Celsius is the freezing point of water, but in Fahrenheit it looks weird (32 degrees F) because you put it in a form it is not supposed to be in, and that is just what it looks like in that form. It is useful for calculations sometimes though.
Pi is much more normal looking when you put it in proper terms.
Pi is equal to exactly 4 times (1-1/3+1/5-1/7+1/9-1/11+1/13...) etc. for infinity.
Try it yourself if you don't believe, first subtract 1/3 from 1 to get 2/3 then add 1/5 to that and keep doing it then multiply it all by 4 and that is one more fundamental way of representing pi that is not the messy base ten form.
