Pi versus Tau
Here's Vi Hart:
What do you think?
What changes to math would occur as a result of switching from using pi to using tau?
- Which will be good/useful/more efficient?
- Which be bad/annoying/less efficient?
Does she make a good enough case for us to switch in this class or should we continue to use pi?
(at 2:30, "The way of mathematics is to make stuff up and see what happens." I love that statement.)
