When you think of a circle...

[dennilfloss]

Do you usually think of the perimeter (the line) or the disc (the surface bound by that line)?

For me I think of the curve more often than the surface. It's what first comes to mind.

:music:
From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

It's the Circle of Life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the Circle
The Circle of Life

It's the Circle of Life
And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the Circle
The Circle of Life
:music:

As an ATPN semi-regular, jerk is my first thought.

Other than that, I think of the 2-sphere.

 

[Epic Fail]

I think of pie.

 

[nakedfrog]

I don't know, just a circle.

When I think of a circle I think of a white background with a black circle put on it... That is what pops into my mind...

If you don't understand that, then maybe this will help.

Pretty much what I imagine instantly...

I don't get what you mean by curves or surface.
