What is "pi"? Mathematician: Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.
Engineer: Pi is about 22/7.
Physicist: Pi is 3.14159 plus or minus 0.000005
Computer Programmer: Pi is 3.141592653589 in double precision.
Nutritionist: You one track math-minded fellows, Pie is a healthy and delicious dessert!
1) e is easier to spell than pi.
2) pi ~= 3.14 while e ~=2.718281828459045.
3) The character for e can be found on a keyboard, but pi sure can't.
4) Everybody fights for their piece of the pie.
5) ln(pi^1) is a really nasty number, but ln(e^1) = 1.
6) e is used in calculus while pi is used in baby geometry.
7) 'e' is the most commonly picked vowel in Wheel of Fortune.
8) e stands for Euler's Number, pi doesn't stand for squat.
9) You don't need to know Greek to be able to use e.
10) You can't confuse e with a food product.

A mathematician went insane and believed that he was the differentiation operator. His friends had him placed in a mental hospital until he got better. All day he would go around frightening the other patients by staring at them and saying "I differentiate you!"
One day he met a new patient; and true to form he stared at him and said "I differentiate you!", but for once, his victim's expression didn't change. Surprised, the mathematician marshalled his energies, stared fiercely at the new patient and said loudly "I differentiate you!", but still the other man had no reaction. Finally, in frustration, the mathematician screamed out "I DIFFERENTIATE YOU!"
The new patient calmly looked up and said, "You can differentiate me all you like: I'm e to the x."

An astronomer, a physicist and a mathematician (it is said) were holidaying in Scotland. Glancing from a train window, they observed a black sheep in the middle of a field.
"How interesting," observed the astronomer, "all scottish sheep are black!"
To which the physicist responded, "No, no! Some Scottish sheep are black!"
The mathematician gazed heavenward in supplication, and then intoned, "In Scotland there exists at least one field, containing at least one sheep, at least one side of which is black.
