Electromagnetic waves or microwaves that emit signals that are linked to the digits of the decimal number π for nonobvious or mysterious reasons—for instance, is the covert activity used to spy on rogue states, to communicate with extraterrestrials, or to jam enemies’ signals?

The mathematical equivalent of “Kama Sutra” that even those who are apathetic about or allergic to the number π want to order a copy or two, after it became the post-pandemic bestselling pop math title on Amazon.
Although “Pi Sutra” is filled with juicy pi factoids, reveals some creative ways of making the irrational number exciting even to math-anxious folks, and discuses some easy-to-understand cool theorems on mathematicians’ constant of choice, however, some ultra-MAGA parents have asked their governors to ban the recreational math book in school libraries, because it’s the potential to pervert the minds of teenagers.
