phi

now that you mention it, the golden ratio is even more so baddood;

it doesn't make many appearances at all in higher mathematics and it's not even a transcendental number
it's the poor man's pi  baddood;

The Da Vinci Code told me that phi was cool, and Dan Brown is definitely a reliable source of mathematical knowledge.

Using Wikipedia and some complicated mathematics, I have determined that this killings happened when he was 11 years old.

Yeah, that's pretty remarkable. doodthing;

no phi is actually awesome

I don't know anything about it besides that I like to write out the numbers when I'm bored in class

it's fun when they get really big because you have to do the math on paper

I agree.
If anything, pi is just a byproduct of the cool shit e does.  baddood;
e.g. the trig functions are just complex exponentials, the values of the gamma function for multiples of 1/2 involve the square root of pi, stirling's formula, the complex logarithm etc.

what about hyperbolae oh snap

anyways uh yeah circles am kind of be covered by the trig functions which as i noted are just complex exponentials
in conclusion, pi is e's bitch baddood;
