And plus, to be even further recommended:

Cylinder:
V=pi * radius(squared) * Height
SA=2*pi*radius(squared) + 2*pi*radius*height

Cone:
V=1/3 pi*radius(squared) * height
SA= pi*radius(squared)*pi*radius*square root of(height(squared) + (radius(squared)

Sphere:
V=4/3 pi*radius(cubed)
SA=4*pi*radius(squared)

I hope this will let me join.......

What shall be your title,zerglinhatin?

holy article. Update holy news:
zerglinhatin is a new regular/druid. Welcome him.

Of course, you must make a profession of faith, listing the sacred digits or something else related to pi.

The Revelation of Pi is almost complete: I should post it here tomorrow.

By the way the title is NOT your role; a title here is just a little fun tag to your name.

g1ggy - Rainbow Randolph II: Druid
zerglinhatin - Title not Chosen: Prophet

In the beginning, PI. Beyond concept, beyond definition, beyond understanding and comprehension, there was Pi, and there was no other.
Pi said, "Let there be a point". And there was a point: infinite in mass, infinitely small.
Then Pi said, "Let the point expand, and let the set of all points equidistant from the point in three dimensions be a sphere." So it happened, just as the Almighty Pi commanded. At the same time, Pi created/defined the circle, and all hyper-circles in dimensions 4 to infinity.
Thus was all geometry begun, and Pi defined these most basic shapes with reference to itself.
Pi then began to expand on geometry. Pi soon found it needed more numbers to describe the lower shapes. Thus were created the integers, fractions, and (most importantly) irrational numbers beyond count, including square roots, logarithms, and phi: the golden ratio. The "sphere" Pi had created continued to expand, and Pi called it the Universe. And Pi saw fit to create lesser spheres within this great sphere. These lesser spheres Pi called "stars". Still smaller spheres Pi cause to orbit in circles around these stars, and Pi called them "planets".
One of these planets Pi saw fit to bless with intelligent life. The Almighty Pi gave this life knowledge to understand and appreciate Pi and all its wonders. Pi, in its great wisdom, made the creature in the form of a sphere, to make sure he never forgot his Creator, and placed numerous spherical forms on the planet with him. The spheres Pi had made were happy, and loved the Number to whom they owed their existence.

Thus ends Chapter 1. Chapter 2: The Distortion, and Chapter 3: The Faithful, forthcoming.

Not true. In the beginning, there was Pie. Pie created Pi to create all the mathematical stuff, and Pi got carried away. Pi shall be punished by Pie.

So Zeus caused pie and pi to exist,though indirectly,he still did.

@W0lf
Before a pie exists, the concept of a pie must exist. Before the concept of a pie exists, the concept of a circle must exist, since a pie is in the shape of a circle. And the concept of Pi inheres within the concept of a circle. Therefore, Pi must exist before a pie.

Didn't I order him to be burnt already?

And what about Book 1 and 2, High Prophet?

I'm a life long worshiper of e, the exponential function. Its a transcendental number and makes more sense then the pi. Plus differentiate pi and what do you get.... oh thats right ZERO. Differentiate e and you get e, therefore by my counts e is infinite, pi is (stops and realises he's fighting a number!)

I like phi too. Perhaps pi is outdated and useless and needs to be replaced by something fresher and new. After all there's no such thing as original religion.

LONG LIVE e

e is just cool. Maybe e could fight the tyrannical forces of pi in a differentiation contest. I know who would win that.

(more i type, more nerdy i become, yay?)

Pie is a circle. Pi is used to find a circle. This means that Pie is greater, and created Pi in it's own image. Duh.
