Pi (π) is a numerical constant frequently used in mathematical calculations, for instance, to express the relation between a circle's circumference and its radius. 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.
