      pi ends with the digit 9, followed by an infinite sequence of other digits.

      That’s a very interesting use of the word “ends”.

          True but I think the Fast & the Furious franchise has a better shot at giving Pi a run for it’s money.

        TBF, if your goal is to generate the most valid sentence that directly answers the question, it’s only one minor abstract noun that’s broken here.

        Edit: I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a substantial drop in the probability of a digit being listed after the leading 9 (3.14159…), even, so it is “last” in a sense.

        Edit again: Man, Baader-Meinhof so hard. Somehow pi to 5 digits came up more than once in 24 hours, so yes.

      In other words, it doesn’t work.

        Maybe it knows something about pi we don’t.

        It’s infinite yet ends in a 9. It’s a great mystery.

          Pi is 10 in base-pi

          EDIT: 10, not 1

            I saw someone post this a few days ago, and someone else quickly pointed out that it is incorrect. This time I’ll point out it is incorrect.

            In base-pi, pi would be represented as 10. The place value of the right-most digit would be pi^0, and the next digit is pi^1.

              Indeed. 10 is pi in base-pi

            Mathematicians are weird enough that at least one of them has done calculations in base-pi.

              That’s pretty much what radians are. Well, they combine base pi with whatever base you’re using for the coefficients.

          Hyperreal numbers go brrr.

          I’m kind of curious what ways exactly using this in place of actual pi would change/break geometry. Obviously, it wouldn’t become noticeable until you try to involve infinite structures.

        I mean, it depends on what you’re doing. Supervision always required, though.

            There’s probably some finetuning at play for Amazon’s thing which makes it tend to always give a straight answer, instead of stepping outside of the box and doing something like correcting an implicit assumption.
