Can a mathematician show that: In the number [math] \pi [/math] there will never be a repetition of the numeral 1 one thousand times in a consecutive fashion?

What is the largest repetition, found to date, in [math] \pi [/math]?

Is the statistical analysis of [math] \pi [/math] in terms of repetition a glimpse into a random number generator?

The first 1000 digits of [math]\pi [/math] contain ample double consecutive digits (marked yellow), and a few triples (marked green). The presence of the sextuple (marked red) in such a small sample is an intriguing anomaly. For comparison, τ (2π) contains a run of 7 nines (marked purple) near the same point.

Probably not, because there does exist such a sequence in pi.

So [math]\pi [/math] is a special number that is infinitely long and will never have [math]\pi [/math] within itself?

I have searched through [math]\pi [/math] and found the sequence 31415926 three times in the 200 million digits of [math]\pi [/math].
>The string 31415926 occurs at position 50366472.
>The string 31415926 occurs at position 143343711.
>The string 31415926 occurs at position 157060182.
>>
>>8008737
If pi contains pi within itself then

(10^n)pi - pi = x

where n and x are some integer

but then we have

pi(10^n-1) = x

pi = x/(10^n-1)

But this would mean pi is rational. By contradiction, pi cannot contain itself.
>>
>>8008591
couple things

1) The answer to your question is "yes" if pi is "normal" as that other poster said, so read a little on normal numbers.

2) Looking at pi only in base 10 is probably not the best choice. Try binary, which is generally a lot more useful than base 10.
>>
>>8008862
Fuck, I missed the word "not" in OP's post. The answer is "no" if pi is normal.

But that's not really surprising since 2 x "......99999999...." is always going to have a bunch of 999999s in it.
>>
FYI, the mathematical term for "1111111...." is
REPUNIT

Now you know a new word.

Pi is transcendental, and goes on infinitely

You can find any sequence you like in the digits of pi

>>8008603
>>8008608
Would you care to explain to me what you mean by "10 dimensions" in this case?
>>
>>8010780
>Pi is transcendental, and goes on infinitely
So is 0.101001000100001...
but that obviously doesn't contain every finite sequence.
>>
>>8010788
What he probably meant was the walk of pi in base 10 in 2 dimensions.

Please see >>8011188 this what I meant, I'm a complete retard which is why I post on [s4s]
