Serenade
In music, a serenade (or sometimes serenata, from the Italian word) is a musical composition, and/or performance, in someone's honor. Serenades are typically calm, light music.
The word serenade is the translation of the Italian word serenata, derived from the Latin word serenus.
Early serenade music
In the oldest usage, which survives in informal form to the present day, a serenade is a musical greeting performed for a lover, friend, person of rank or other person to be honored. The classic serenade usage would be from a lover to his lady love through a window. It was considered an evening piece, one to be performed on a quiet and pleasant evening, as opposed to an aubade, which would be performed in the morning. The custom of serenading in this manner began in the Medieval era, and the word "serenade" as commonly used in current English is related to this custom. Music performed followed no one particular form, except that it was typically sung by one person accompanying himself on a portable instrument, most likely a guitar, lute or other plucked instrument. Works of this type also appeared in later eras, but usually in a context that referred specifically to a past time, such as arias in an opera (there is a famous example in Mozart's Don Giovanni). Carl Maria von Weber composed his serenade for voice and guitar, "Horch'! Leise horch', Geliebte!" (1809).

Milü
The name Milü (Chinese: 密率; pinyin: mì lǜ; "detailed (approximation) ratio"), also known as Zulü (Zu's ratio), is given to an approximation to π (pi) found by Chinese mathematician and astronomer Zǔ Chōngzhī (祖沖之). He computed π to be between 3.1415926 and 3.1415927 and gave two rational approximations of π, 22/7 and 355/113, naming them respectively Yuelü 约率 (approximate ratio) and Milü.
355/113 is the best rational approximation of π with a denominator of four digits or fewer, being accurate to 6 decimal places. It is within 0.000009% of the value of π, or in terms of common fractions overestimates π by less than 1/3 748 629. The next rational number (ordered by size of denominator) that is a better rational approximation of π is 52 163/16 604, still only correct to 6 decimal places and hardly closer to π than 355/113. To be accurate to 7 decimal places, one needs to go as far as 86 953/27 678. For 8, we need 102 928/32 763.
An easy mnemonic helps memorize this useful fraction by writing down each of the first three odd numbers twice: 1 1 3 3 5 5, then dividing the decimal number represented by the last 3 digits by the decimal number given by the first three digits. Alternatively, 1 / π = 113 / 355.
