Pi is an irrational (and transcendental) number, so it is impossible to express it as a fraction or a finite decimal. If you can be more specific as to what you're looking for . . .

Roblochon is the premier/number one cheese of the Savoie...made from a mixture of 3 milks...yadda yadda yadda.
My French sux but they say it's good cheese.
What did you win, by the way?
How 'bout Sweet Potato Pi, that's a root, of something.
Hey, why don't you ask a Blonde (with black roots)? :-)
Actually, the series I was thinking of gives (pi^2)/6. There really is no answer to "what is the square root of pi". The only interesting place that that number shows up is in the formula for the Bell Curve.
There is ALWAYS a modulo to be recokened with....
And you can quote me!
A closer practical number is 22/7 =3.1428571
Square root of 3.14 =1.772
Square root of 3.1428571 = 1.7728105
It would be unusual to need it any closer than either of the above.
Well, that equation is correct . . .
