is pie even or odd

Finish grade 9 math and get back to us.
>hint: irrational

btw thats OC

What the first loser meant was: even and odd only apply to whole numbers, ie 1,2,3,4,5...etc. Pi=3.1415926535...etc. Pi is a decimal number, therefore not of the set of whole numbers to begin with, and secondly, the decimal values are non-repeating so no final whole value for pi can be made from a base ten counting system.

is -1 odd?

is -2 even?

I believe <span class="math">pi[/spoiler] is even if we extend the notion of even and odd to irrational numbers. Consider the unit circle. It's circumference on an asymptotically flat plane is given as <span class="math">2\pi[/spoiler], it is also the zero point of the unit circle. Zero is even. I'm pretty sure that you could use that to prove that the digit of pi at infinity would have to be an even number.

did you just say zero is even? amongst incoherent nonsense? slap yourself.

[Anonymous No.2114498]

well, if the definition of even is divisible by two with no remainder, then yes, -1 is odd and -2 is even.

even * even = even
even * odd = even
odd * odd = odd

It's circumference on an asymptotically flat plane (Euclidean circle) is given as <span class="math">2 \pi[/spoiler], it is also the zero point of the unit circle. Zero is even.

even * even = even
even * odd = even
odd * odd = odd

For those who doubt zero is even, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_zero
Zero is an even number. In other words, its parity—the quality of an integer being even or odd—is even. Zero fits the definition of "even number": it is an integer multiple of 2. As a result, zero exhibits the properties shared by all even numbers: 0 is evenly divisible by 2, 0 is surrounded on both sides by odd integers, 0 is the sum of an integer with itself, and 0 objects can be split into two equal groups. Zero fits into the rules for sums and products of even numbers, such as even − even = even, so any alternate definition of "even number" would still need to include zero. Within the even numbers, zero plays a central role: it is the identity element of the group of even integers, and it is the starting case from which other even natural numbers are recursively generated. Every integer divides 0, including each power of 2; in this sense, 0 is the "most even" number of all.

Thoughts regarding extending the notion of parity to include irrationals: if the least significant digit of the number is even the number is even.
Intuitive basis for the conjecture: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14...
It's a simple property of any even integer that the least significant digit is even.

Also, typo correction.
>it is also the zero point of the unit circle
>it is also *a* zero point of the unit circle

The main problem with proving the evenness of pi is the fact that it's a transcendental number.
>>2114388
The problem with proving the evenness of pie is the fact that it's a baked good. Assuming no typo was made.
