Short for “Pi Parrot.” Someone who takes part in a memory competition that requires them to recite as many digits of the decimal number π as possible, when the local winner stands a chance of getting their name into their country’s Book of Records, or the global winner into the Guinness Book of Records.
Guesstimate the total number of amateur and professional pirrots worldwide, who spend thousands of hours every year training for the pithon or pi competition.

A parrot that has been trained to recite the first few digits of the decimal number π—the more digits they can regurgitate, the dearer they are.
