1. Does each of the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 each occur
infinitely often in PI?
2. Brouwer's question: In the decimal expansion of PI, is there a place
where a thousand consecutive digits are all zero?
3. Is PI simply normal to base 10? That is does every digit appear equally
often in its decimal expansion in an asymptotic sense?
4. Is PI normal to base 10? That is does every block of digits of a given
length appear equally often in its decimal expansion in an asymptotic sense?
5. Is PI normal ? That is does every block of digits of a given length
appear equally often in the expansion in every base in an asymptotic sense?
The concept was introduced by Borel in 1909.
6. Another normal question! We know that PI is not rational so there is no
point from which the digits will repeat. However, if PI is normal then the
first million digits 314159265358979... will occur from some point. Even if
PI is not normal this might hold! Does it? If so from what point? Note: Up
to 200 million the longest to appear is 31415926 and this appears twice.
There's an extremely nasty universal surprise waiting at the end of Pi.infinitely often in PI?

Just drop it.
DAMN CARD DOESN'T FIT IN MY WALLET???2?
the possibilities inherent in the English language to the fullest. I
will now present it to you.
Question: What does a grumpy, mean professor of mathematics say to a
student who has confused the value of Pi with that of the
mathematical constant e?
Answer: "PI'S OFF!!!3!"
Ta daa.
religious beliefs forbid the telling of COMPLEX mathematical jokes, of
course, so this mathematical joke will be in the simple style of
SLAPSTICK. I sincerely hope you all enjoy it.
Question: What do you call a heated argument between two grumpy,
mean professors of mathematics?
Answer: PI FIGHT!!!4!
Cha Ching.
mathematical jokes, I've taken the liberty of composing ANOTHER math
quip. I'd be honoured if you, my dear readers, took a moment to
appreciate it. Thank you in advance.
Question: What do you call a marijuana pipe shared by two grumpy,
mean, and stoned professors of mathematics who met on a Usenet
newsgroup, where they discussed "Brouwer's question"?
Answer: PI NG BONG!!!5!
Boi-oi-oi-oi-oing.
this joke. Please be quiet. I am going to tell it now.
*ahem*
Question: When a Japanese professor of mathematics happens to run into his
Italian half-brother, also a professor of mathematics, at a convention of
professors of mathematics in Florence, Italy, how does he address his
half-brother in this moment of surprise and delight?
Answer: PI-SAN!!!6!
Ba-da-bing.
