Will we ever find an end to π?

& why?

>> No.1361206

it never ends

like carl sagan

it never ends

>> No.1361209

No, pi has been proven to be transcendental, meaning there's no end.

>> No.1361212

Pi is 1 in base-pi

>> No.1361216

there must be an end at some point, theres a limit to how precise you can be

>> No.1361222

pi is 10 in base pi
inb4 every base is base 10

No there mustn't. There's no end.

There's a limit to how precise you can care about or is relevant, or how you are physically capable of being given that it takes time to list digits.

Oh shit, you're right.

That it is irrational means there is no end to it in any integer number base.

This is just a kid who doesn't understand that math is not about the real world. Nothing to rage about.
