minus-squareblind3rdeye@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up8·5 months agoI 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.
minus-squareFlying Squid@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down2·5 months agoMathematicians are weird enough that at least one of them has done calculations in base-pi.
minus-squareBuddahriffic@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 months agoThat’s pretty much what radians are. Well, they combine base pi with whatever base you’re using for the coefficients.
Pi is 10 in base-pi

Indeed. 10 is pi in base-pi
