Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!The number before the decimal is not 0. .99999999... is just another way of writing 1. In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on. #52 2012-06-28 23:24:11
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!0.99999... The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't. “It's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!” ― Richard Feynman “A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept.” ― Carlos Ruiz Zafón #53 2012-06-28 23:25:27
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!That is not really true. Again, it is a 1. In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on. #54 2012-06-28 23:26:34
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!It can be either 0 or 1, based on the way it is written. The limit operator is just an excuse for doing something you know you can't. “It's the subject that nobody knows anything about that we can all talk about!” ― Richard Feynman “A secret's worth depends on the people from whom it must be kept.” ― Carlos Ruiz Zafón #55 2012-06-28 23:32:10
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!That 0 has no real significance. Would you write 00023 for 23? In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on. #56 2012-06-29 01:00:49

Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!But, how does continuity apply here?

Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!Endless!... #62 2012-06-30 22:49:13
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!Hmmmm. That post is pretty endless. But .99999999... still equals 1 In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on. #63 2012-07-01 07:38:01
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!1-0.999... = (0.9... = 0.1...) Further on...(0.99... = 0.01...) Further on...(0.999...= 0.001...) Conclusion there will Always be a Difference!! #64 2012-07-01 07:39:35
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!But that difference is 0. In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on. #65 2012-07-01 18:56:14
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!At which Point in time!?? Start (0.9... = 0.1...) Further on... (Endless!) #66 2012-07-01 18:57:46
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!At infinity of course. In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on. #68 2012-07-01 19:08:43
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!It is already there. That is what the notation implies. In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on. #69 2012-07-01 19:36:56
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!How Can it Already be there?? if there is a Endless Difference of 0.1 From the Start Onwards! #70 2012-07-01 20:02:22
Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!That is your opinion of course. It is not backed up by mathematicians or by any solid evidence. In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics. I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on. #71 2012-07-01 20:38:00

Re: Pi to a Million Decimal Places!This thread is about pi. Can you restrict the posts to that? In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them. 90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
