  π has an infinite amount of decimals.

    So does every number:

    6.000000…

      Or 5.999… It’s equal to 6 but it appears to have a much more impressive decimal expansion

      Nope, the proof has been known since ancient times!

        The proof is not that ancient. Pi was proven to be irrational in 1761, and proven to be transcendental in 1882.

        For a long time the problem was known as “squaring the circle”: Given a circle in a plane, construct a square with the same area using a compass and straightedge. This was a famous unsolved problem in mathematics from antiquity all the way through the renaissance.

  There is no 6 in π

    3.1415926… there is 6 in pi, I believe the joke is that it’s an irrational number so the line never stops

      Oh sure, but in 6 years someone at a dinner party is gonna say “did you know there is no 6 in π” because they read my comment. At that moment my life’s purpose will be fulfilled.

      Mischief managed.
