Re:Pi calculation world record with over 202T digits by bubblyworld on Monday July 15, 2024 @10:12AM (#40968064)
That's true - you can quite easily prove that an eventually constant sequence of decimals codes for a rational number.

But it's also true that pi may not contain every _possible_ sequence of decimals, no matter what base you pick. Like the Riemann hypothesis, it seems very likely and people have checked a lot of statistics, but nobody has proven it beyond a (mathematical) shadow of doubt.
