hint : the answer is in the question.

[pablo]

The volume of a pizza ...
ANSWER

Volume of a cylinder = Pi * R^2 * H
Where R = Radius
Where H = Height
And Pi is ... well Pi.

Here we have the radius = z
Here we have the heigth = a

So the answer is Pi * z^2 * a
z^2 = z*z
Pi*z*z*a
Pi.z.z.a
Pizza

There were 4 correct answers, but only one was given in the form I wanted. Congrats to claire.h (http://www.feckthat.com/rant/member.php?u=1205).

[claire.h]

I'd just like to thank Jesus and my mom. Woohoo!

And this on top of having my greatest ever success in sport yesterday - I came 2nd of 77 people in orienteering. I ran the course for small people and old people. The woman who came first was over 65, and most of the people I beat were under 10.

Still though, all this success won't change me. I'll still remain the same humble, modest Lady Claire.h as everyone knows and loves me.

:D
