→‎Pi contains every other number?: "Obviously wrong"??? Here is my proof by induction
Line 147: Line 147:     
But saying that pi contains "every other number" implies that it contains every number like pi, i.e., every real number. That is obviously wrong. --[[User:AugustO|AugustO]] ([[User talk:AugustO|talk]]) 08:42, July 11, 2021 (EDT)

:"Obviously wrong"??? Here is my proof by induction:
 +
:1. pi contains pi as one significant digit in a finite representation ("3": 3.14159265'''3'''....)
 +
:2. assume pi contains pi as ''n'' significant digits in a finite representation of pi.  Pi must also contain pi as ''n+1'' significant digits as number of digits of pi is stretched to [[infinity]].
