Pi is exactly 3.

  • This has become our largest and most active forum because the physics GRE is just one aspect of getting accepted into a graduate physics program.
  • There are applications, personal statements, letters of recommendation, visiting schools, anxiety of waiting for acceptances, deciding between schools, finding out where others are going, etc.

If pi were 3, then all the integers would be transcendental. It would really be a pain to count stuff then.

@artist

Hoorah for that thought. I'll take that alone as a proof that pi is transcendental.
