There must be some practical application of knowing values of irrational numbers to increasingly long decimal places?
Like the way that extremely large prime numbers are valuable in cryptography for instance.
Oh and ‘maths undergrad in can’t spell ‘pursuit‘ shocker’ 😀
If there is one thing I would change with a magic wand about myself (well apart from ‘that’) it would be to be excellent at maths. I have tried in adult life to re-learn and get better, but it just wasn’t happening.
EDIT – just thinking about it, if you had values of Pi and ‘e’ to decimal places longer than anyone else, then when you factored them wouldn’t that also be valuable in cryptography?
