Square root day – 03/03/2009

Well I was reading this CNET news which was about square root day falling tomorrow i.e. 03/03/09 which occurs only 9 times in a century.

Tuesday is Square Root Day, a rare holiday that occurs when the day and the month are both the square root of the last two digits of the current year. Numerically, March 3, 2009, can be expressed as 3/3/09, or mathematically as √9 = 3, or 3² = 3 × 3 = 9.

I know its absurd but I have my own reasons to post about it.

The following are the square root days if you have failed in second grade

  1. 01/01/2001
