I've only ever bothered to memorize it out to five decimal places.
Maybe I'll start adding a decimal place every year, on Pi day, and see how long I can successfully do that
So now I'm up to 3.141592

The great Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler found this amazing relation between pi and e (the base of natural logarithms):
e^(pi*i) = -1
It’s known as “Euler's identity”. Both pi and e are transcendental numbers.
