Except pi isn’t a variable. It is a known value that we refer to as pi for convenience, and pi is a fundamental aspect of how a circle is. Saying “let pi equal 5” is all fine and well but is physically impossible, you will not be determining the volume of a cylinder if you let pi equal 5, because the ratio of a circle does not equal 5, it equals 3.14
Or as I like to call pi…the little symbol thingy. But exactly yes, you get it.

Okay but they didn’t say 3.14 they made a little symbol thingy
