The answer depends upon what the meaning of is is (Can't we ever have a threat without bringing up that Scumbag).

If you want a practical answer for a real world application, pick one of the above numbers to the accuracy desired.

If you want the mathematically correct and exact answer, then the answer is "square root of pi".

I saw a lecture recently where they talked about normed spaces. There, you could make pi many different things depending on the norm. Could be anything from 3 to 8. Lucky we don't live in those worlds, though.

However we can get close enough for government work

You of course realize that "close enough for government work" would also include Pi denial. What Pi? ...never happened.

Nah. I believe that would be like getting to the edge of the earth. It is pretty likely that the universe is just a 4-dimensional "sphere".

There is no square root of any negative number.

Roblochon is the first cheese of Savoy to have obtained the AOC, in 1958 according to an initial text, it is composed of a mixture of 3 milks coming from the 3 races from cow which enables him to assert the AOC: abundance, tarine and montbéliarde Reblochon was born from the ingeniousness of the Savoyard shepherds. With the XIII 3rd siécle, they depended on the great landowners to whom it were to give the product of the draft. To keep a little milk, they did not milk their animals complétement. It is only aprés the departure of the managers whom they collected the remainder of milk: they " Re-blochaient ". From where the name derived from Reblochon manufactured with this milk trés rich in crême, from second draft. It is placed to hâloir some for drying and there will be gone back every 2 days and will be washed with the whey. It is during this stage that it will avoid of a yellow crust saffron covered with a fine white foam. Its fine and noisettée savour contrast sometimes with the strong odor of cellar which emerges from the reblochon. Crémeux, the reblochon is often raised by herbaceous flavours. The paste ivory is of a consistent and flexible consistency.

Actually, it is not quite accurate. It is actually the square root of Pi to the first 1000 places, taken to 1000 places, but should be close enough for most calculations.

I figured it out the square root of pi is...

The amount of Clinton scandals multiplied by
The amount of times the word "abortion" comes out of Barbara Boxers mouth
Divided by the amount of times Gary Condit has lied
Subtracted by the amount of times Jerrold Nadler has bankrupted an "all you can eat" buffet (and eaten all of the pies)

And that is the square root of pi.

You're right, there are exactly two.

If I don't have another piece of pi, I'll die.
So since it has been decided that I must die,
I think I'll have another piece of pi.

The square root of "pi" is X, where X times X equals pi.

The square root of "pie" is rhubarb!!! :)

According to comedian Steven Wright, a black hole is where God goes to divide by zero and find the square root of negative numbers.
