Eating too much cake is the sin of gluttony.

However, eating too much pie is okay because the sin of pi is always zero.

In 1969 Apollo 11, the spaceflight that first landed humans on the Moon, used these 30 lines of code to calculate transcendental functions like sine and cosine essential for navigation

Mathematics. Welcome to Heaven.

Graph of the equation y = 1/x.

Shiver. e is the unique number larger than 1 that makes the shaded area under the curve equal to 1. https://t.co/EyHZvRkC7u

Mathematics. Transcendent.

The global maximum of the x-th root of x occurs at x = e. Nice.

I told my son that we are having some of our graduating senior math majors over to our house tomorrow. He said, “When they graduate, do they get degrees… or radians?”

This is a mathematics meme, which I found in the X stream of Howie Hua. He writes: "It's just adding 1 in the denominator, how bad can it be?"

The letter π was first introduced as a symbol for the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter by the Welsh mathematician William Jones in 1706.

π is the first letter of the Greek word "peripheria" (περιφέρεια), which means perimeter.
