That’s my favorite pi equation - Euler’s Identity!
Euler as one the other mathematicians of his era said “The master of us all!”.

It ties together five fundamental constants, the fundamental operations of arithmetic, and is at the heart of trigonometry. As such, it’s a thing of beauty.

Around a year ago, I was in Walmart and noticed a TI Inspire CX calculator was priced at only $30. I didn’t know for sure but thought that must be a great price.
It rang up something like $140. I told the cashier that it was marked $30. The manager was standing right there and went to check. She said they were mispriced and to let me have it for $30.
I then asked her if I could buy them all. She laughed and said no.

It relates a linear system with a circular system.
Maybe the reason why it never converges is that it takes an infinite number of lines to make up a circle? Shorter and shorter lines until you have a perfect circle.

Was a great episode ... except for the fact that a computer in the 23rd century should have answered ... “cannot comply, pi is a transcendental figure without resolution” ...

You only need 39 or 40 digits of pi to calculate the circumference of the observable universe to within the width of a hydrogen atom.
Why would you do that unless you were a FR junky who has nothing to do at home but spend your day on this website?
With that being said, what would you get if you used 187 digits of pi?
