Well everyday is pie day but mathematicians and other number lovers designated March 14 (3.14) as Pi Day.

Just in time for its celebration is the work of Google employee Emma Haruka Iwao who fulfilled a childhood dream by breaking the current record for its value. The new value is 31,415,926,35,897 digits long. It took four months.

Iwao is a Google cloud advocate and used 25 virtual cloud computers to achieve the new value.

It is more than alright to have a pie for dinner and dessert on Pi Day.
