The result is exactly the same using any unit system.

Impossible. English circles are inches, while metric circles are mm.

But English circles are made of aluminium, so go figure.

The result is exactly the same using feet, inches, noses, nose hairs, bananas, any unit system.

Not if the unit is sheep

Pi is a dimensionless number. It has no units. Mathematically, in the calculation of pi any units used cancel each other out. You can use any units you want or make up your own. If you measure the circumference of a circle in the units of your choice and measure the diameter of that circle with the same units, then divide the circumference by the diameter, you always get pi (3.14159 etc.)

-_- pi is the ratio of a circle's circumference and diameter. It doesn't change, regardless of what units you use.

Sheep, goats, fishing worms, lightbulbs, horses...Provide you use one for a standard.

It does if you use sheep.

You can't have 0.14159 etc of a sheep

The trick is finding a perfectly spherical sheep to do your measurements on.

It's 3.14. Three sheep plus about a tenth and a half more.
Just use even spacing when you mark your mutton.

That's not a sheep, that's an ex sheep.

And only in a perfect vacuum.

It's not my fault if you choose a squirmy unit of measure.

I don't choose it, New Zealanders choose it!
