Give me one reason why I shouldn't convert to Christianity after seeing this....

Christfag here- That perimeter mimics a circle, but doesn't become a circle after an infinite number of iterations.

Discuss.

Not to mention the Bible clearly gives pi = 3, you heathen.

>> No.2095926

The problem here is that you are converging on an AREA as an infinite series, whereas you are trying to demonstrate the converging value of a perimeter.

we don't need 2 threads, go back to /b/

>> No.2095936

I don't see how this has any implication towards Christianity at all.

It doesn't work after the first iteration; the 'area' of the removed corners get slightly larger in width with each iteration, thus shortening the perimeter. At infinite iterations, this cumulates to pi not being 4, but 0.858407346410206761537356616720497... less than 4.
