8 Slices of our pie is thus 0.936797304

[edit] This is a poor mathgeek page

You have now been warned.


First some constants:

We can now compute the value of pi*e (pie)

So now I propose a 'slice of pie'...


Pie.png

To make that a bit more english, you cut your pie into 8 slices but will probably lose about 6% of the overall pie quantity as crumbs.

I hereby propose that 'slice' and 'crumbs' be formally defined as such:

slice
(1/pie)
crumbs
(1-(8/slice)) - http://www.google.com/search?q=1-%288%2F%28pi*e%29%29


Also, wolfram alpha gives much more precision than google... http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=100*((8/(pi*e))/8)
