Sure they will. Since it is infinite and non repeating, It is presumed that pi has every sequence of numbers imaginable, meaning that if you came up with any random 50 numbers, somewhere in the string of pi they would exist making tastymeatpie's comment extra clever. The only part that would incorrect is that since there is no end to pi, there is no middle.

I think this is a common misconception. Sort of like saying a million monkeys mashing the keys of a million typewriters for a million, or even an infinite, number of years would eventually produce the complete works of Shakespeare. No. No, they would not. Just because something is infinite and non-repeating it does not necessarily follow that it must contain every possible pattern.

buck1017

level 73

Apr 8, 2015

Sure it does. You realize just how long infinite is right? Furthermore, the link you provided proved my point - "However, if the decimal expansion of π contains every possible finite string of digits, which seems quite likely, then the rest of the statement is indeed correct. Of course, in that case it also contains numerical equivalents of every book that will never be written, among other things."

+3

level 75

Apr 8, 2015

I must have missed that comment amid all the many others that said the exact opposite. And yes, I understand what infinity means. 50 numbers isn't that long, though, so.. you're probably right about it containing any random string of 50 numbers. probably. But the binary equivalent of Pride and Prejudice? Highly highly highly unlikely. Even stretched out to infinity.

If you took ten balloons filled with paint and threw them in the air and watched how they landed, they would make different patterns of color every time. If you did this an infinite number of times, would you eventually get the Mona Lisa? No. Never. Same with the monkey thing. Monkeys typing on a keyboard might produce a lot of random letters. But you will get a lot of variants of "agvaelnhvke" and "a l er kjehv " and "artraegav"... but never once "To be or not to be, that is the question"... it just wouldn't happen. Not even with an infinite number of tries. The probability is effectively zero.

According to that stackexchange link you posted, it is expected that every possible string of numbers can be found in pi. It just hasn't been proven. But you're right the chance of finding a random 50 digit string is effectively zero unless we develop new methods of calculating digits of pi.

buck1017

+13

level 73

Apr 9, 2015

That's the beauty of infinity. There is no such thing as "effectively zero" probability. Stretching a limit out to infinity, probability becomes either 100% or 0%. Using your balloon example, you couldn't release an infinite number of balloons with an infinite number of colors and end up making a cake because the media are different, therefore probability = 0% even over an infinite time period. However, when typing, including letters and common punctuation, you have a one in say 35 chance or 2.86% chance to hit a certain letter. To accidentally type the word "Hamlet" that probability drops to .0000000544%. So yes, typing an entire novel would be an unfathomably low probability, but not zero. Over an unfathomably long (infinite) time period, any nonzero probably becomes 100%.

level 75

Apr 9, 2015

Well I'm not a mathematician but it was my understanding that even if the numbers never repeat at all they still are unsure if there aren't some sort of patterns that could emerge given enough computational power. Such patterns could preclude there being a string of 1s and 0s (binary) trillions of digits long appearing anywhere in the sequence. But... shrug... not my field of expertise.

Kalbahamut, I think you are incorrect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_monkey_theorem

Findlay

+2

level 69

Aug 9, 2016

I believe the theorem suggests that it will 'almost surely' happen, not that it will. On each individual keystroke there is a 1/26 chance of a particular letter being chosen (ignoring punctuation, spaces and whatnot for simplicity's sake and assuming each letter is equally likely). There may be a 1/17576 chance of getting a particular three character sequence, but if chance has already produced two characters in sequence, the chance of then getting the third remains 1/26. In other words, we are talking about an infinite sequence of 1/26 chances, which means there is a chance, however unimaginably, vanishingly small that you could end up (technically, you wouldn't 'end up') with simply an infinite line of 'q'.

aunk05

level 44

Aug 13, 2016

I think that as kalbahamut has stated it, the 'Mona Lisa' scenario is not equivalent to 'digits in pi'. Suppose we rephrase it like this: "imagine an infinitely large number of pixel arrays, each of arbitrarily large but finite size, and each happily of the same aspect ratio as the Mona Lisa. Suppose each of the pixels in each of these can be any one of an arbitrarily large but finite number of colours. In an infinite number of randomly colour-filled grids, would any of them resemble the Mona Lisa, as closely as resolution and palette allows?" I think the answer to this question is "yes".

"...so you're saying there's a chance!"

+2

level 56

Apr 7, 2018

Every possible finite sequence of digits in pi is conjectured to come up eventually. This is equivalent to saying that pi is what is called 'normal' when written in any base. This means that if you go far enough there will be an equal proportion of each of the digits. So statistically a 1 and a 2 are just as likely to come up. But the conjecture is that this doesn't just work if the digits are in base 10, it works if they are in any base. This has been proven to be true of most irrational numbers, but it is very hard to prove that it is true about any specific irrational number. "Just because something is infinite and non-repeating it does not necessarily follow that it must contain every possible pattern". This is undeniably true but consider the example with the monkeys. There are 41 characters in your quote. Assuming there are 100 possibilities for each character (there would probably be fewer) this gives far less than 10^100 possibilities.

+2

level 56

Apr 7, 2018

Some of these possibilities will have to repeat infinitely many times because the monkey would run out of new possibilities for sequences of 50 characters to write. So if it never typed your quote, it would be typing some sequences of 50 letters infinitely many times and others never. This seems extremely unlikely and indeed is (unless of course there is bias towards some combinations, for instance of the monkey preferred to type the same letter many times in a row). This is why the monkey will almost certainly type your quote eventually.

+2

level 56

Apr 7, 2018

However this does not apply to infinite sequences. The probability of the monkey typing an infinite line of 'q' genuinely is 0 and so will almost certainly never happen. We are dealing with the infinite here so having a probability of 0 doesn't mean it is impossible. It just means that whatever probability you care to name greater than 0, the infinite line of 'q' will be less likely than that.

I think some people have made it to all 50 but, two things, a) the statistics only tabulate data on people's first attempt. If they make subsequent attempts and do better it doesn't affect the stats. and b) it could be that fewer than 1 in 200 people gets past the 39th place, which would mean fewer than half a percent, but still some people. I'm not sure if the stats round down to 0% or not, but I assume that with all the people who have taken this before at least one person has stopped the timer or looked up pi and cheated their way to a perfect score on their first attempt, even if they couldn't do it from memory, so I also assume that the stats must round down if it's a number less than 0.5%

Australia: one of the few places an American can go and not feel like his own country is a little short on history.

Serbia: ripped-off at the border. Unfriendly people. Dreary boring cities. Then upon attempting to exit had my car and the love of my life the past 14 years stolen from me without reason by corrupt border cops. Tried to get it back but even providing all the evidence that was asked for to prove the car was legally registered, the kangaroo courts there didn't want to return my stolen property. What a pathetic excuse for a country if they have to resort to outright theft of tourists' property to fund their anemic economy.

I think it used to go up to 200 when I originally made it. The idea being that you could test yourself to see how many you could get in 15 seconds with no upper limit.

When QM decided to feature the quiz he cut it down to the first 50, so that it was at least possible to ace the quiz and get 5 points.

what is wrong with you people! i knew that energy equals mass times the speed of light squared before einstein was even born and i DEFINITELY knew the digits of pi when i was in the bleeding first grade! all 852 digits. what? you didn't think that the digits of pi eventually stopped? that's propaganda for you. scientists say that pi has an infinite amount of digits but it was actually a complex hoax invented by hitler in 1939 that would trick the minds of the jewish scientists like einstein. so pi actually has 852 digits and you can find the records in any public library. also pi is a palindrome, which most people don't know since they think it has infinite digits. also if you graph a circle with the exact 852 digits the circle will become such a circle that the human eye is tricked into seeing a shape with 3.1415(...) sides. which of course is impossible and therefore any calculator or other method of graphing is dysfunctional when it comes to graphing the real pi digits. peace out yo

Jun 30, 2018

If you say "to (e.g.) 3 decimal places" you generally would mean decimal places after the decimal point. But I agree that the first 3 should count. If you say "to how many decimal places do you know pi?" I would not include the 3 in my answer, just the decimal places after the decimal point.

This is just your personal opinion. I am very offended by how in every quiz you write, you take the opportunity to be offensive to Christians.
