After enjoying the fruits of your labors, we all need a place to chill. This is that place. Totally senseless irrelevant banter encouraged.

PI IS EQUAL TO THREE YOU HOMOPROMOTING DEVIL EVOLUTIONIST

The beauty of numbers. Poetry.


Every number of the form ababab is divisible by 37.

Examples
101010 / 37=2730
282828 / 37 =7371
111111 / 37=3003

Let's see why
ababab = (101010 x a) + (10101 x b)

Factor 101010 and 10101
= (37 x 2730 x a) + (37 x 273 x b)

Notice 37 is a common factor thus
= 37 x [(2730 x a) + (273 x b)]

Hence every ababab number is divisible by 37.

Neato!

can chaos exist within math? or would math bring order?

"can chaos exist within math?"
Yes. there's a whole study of mathematics called chaos theory
Many mechanical systems which display chaotic Behavior are not intuitively predictable even though every element is deterministic.

"or would math bring order."
On face value of your question: No. Check out the video "Math's Fundamental Flaw". I posted it in your 'left vs right' thread. Good times with Prawn Connery. <3

Is this an example of a perfect circle in the real world? Not just some theoretical math construct.
That an irrational and transcendental distance (pi) is in the real world!

You're right, there's the intrinsic irregularity of the molecules in 3D.

I was thinking it would be perfect because the tension forces would be equally all around, nature would take care of the problem.
since posting this I see the tension forces would not be equal all the way around. being in a square frame the corners will skew the tension force directions at a slightly different angle.

Just examining the forces and not the molecules, the only way to get a perfect circle soap hole would have a perfect circled frame to start with.
