Whoever cuts this pizza is getting the little slices.
I’m genuinely surprised that the See Also section does not include the ham sandwich theorem.
I’ve added it, but it might not stay, because it’s mentioned and linked in the last paragraph. MOS:ALSO says:
As a general rule, the “See also” section should not repeat links that appear in the article’s body
But I’m not strict on that rule, and it’s such an obvious related topic that it seems to fit there.
I actually followed to the ham sandwich theorem article from the See Also section, and thought it was a huge coincidence that the pizza theorem article was edited a few hours ago.
Now I know the reason lol
I didn’t think this was how discs were normally partitioned. Does this work better with FAT32 or NTFS?
It actually only works with
FAT, but there’s apparently a new FS in beta calledlzSlob.
When you let mathematicians choose how to fairly divide stuff. See also: auction theory

This assumes there’s a single cutting point in the interior of the pizza, which has not typically been my experience in situations where this would have been an issue.
Edited for clarity.
It doesn’t assume a central cutting point, it assumes 2 people alternating slices
It does assume only one cutting point interior to the pizza:
“Let p be an interior point of the disk, and let n be a multiple of 4 that is greater than or equal to 8. Form n sectors of the disk with equal angles by choosing an arbitrary line through p, rotating the line n/2 − 1 times by an angle of 2π/n radians, and slicing the disk on each of the resulting n/2 lines.”
My previous comment may have been ambiguous, so I’ve edited it to be clearer. I meant that very rarely do all of the cuts go through one point - when slices are uneven in my experience, that usually comes along with a few extra mini-triangles in the middle of the pizza where the cuts have missed each other.
Ah i see what you mean
that pizza guy who got fired still isn’t over it
