*pi, not pie

It never ends. Ever. That means that not only will a googleplex of zeroes occur at one point, it will occur infinite times.

Does it mean an infinite number of zeros occur at some point?

Everything in this world has a limit. The end of space is not an "infinity" away, it's expanding all the time but it always has a distance we can compute. A computer cannot compute infinity because.. it will take an infinity to calculate.

Its impossible. This is true because ANY number multiplied by 0 is 0 so here is what the equation should look like.

Infinity * 0 = 0

Lets put it this way, Infinity=Endless.

Infinity is not a number, and you can not add anything together to get infinity. it's not that difficult to understand.

wouldnt infinity multiplied by zero be zero? after all anything multiplied my nothing is nothing

0*0=0 is a simple thing

nothing multiplied by nothing = nothing

100*0=0
infinity*0=0

On the original point:

The reciprocal of infinity is zero, and the reciprocal of zero is infinity, negative infinity, and complex infinity. This means that zero and infinity share the same properties. Any mystical mathematical phenomenon you may find to link these two abstract values is because of this. Therefor, you all fail immensely at trying to be smart and clever. Go study mathematics.

Someone please edit "INFINITY IS NOT A NUMBER" into the top of the topic post, please.

oh my god

Nobody in this entire ****ing thread knows what they're talking about except kilga and aperson, and a few others to a partial degree.

It seems like nobody here actually understands what the **** a number is. This thread is making me incredibly depressed and angry - I hate you FFR

The most important thing that everyone should understand is this: there is no such thing as "truth" in mathematics (very important). Chew on that for a while. Now. Mathematicians don't "make up stupid rules". Mathematics is by nature the study of a human-constructed system that just happens to often coincide with intuitive concepts about reality. Squeek's pompous statements about how "math doesn't make sense" are ****ing pissing me off. A lot of people in this thread need to throw out everything they know about math and ****ing start the hell over. God DAMN, is it just me or has FFR become more retarded in the past few months?

And for all you retarded fags who rail against "the system" of "academic idiots", maybe you don't realize it, but it makes you look horribly pathetic to people who are more educated than you'll ever be if you keep up that attitude.

i dissagree, inf/0*inf is greater than the C/V^2 so in that case inf would be 0*10^-inf. though this basic algorithm was useful in the early 1800's it was revised later and became C/0*10^inf.
