I laugh at your pathetic approximation to pi.

I was going to post ∞. But to be more original, I actually prefer ∞+1 more.

Now here's a tough question, is this statement true?

∞ == ∞+1

Or how many times bigger is ∞*∞ then ∞?

17 though I am rather fond of the number 3 as well.

Those questions don't particularly make sense, because infinity is not a number.

As a concept, all of those things are equal.

Yes that statement is true. If you believe infinity is not a number.

I believe it is a number, an infinite number. :D

2sqrt(3)Pi/3

I guessed that on a competition question almost 30 years ago. None of the math teachers could answer the question & wanted to know my solution. They had a very hard time believing that it was a lucky guess. "Normal people don't guess numbers like that."

And in regard to infinity, there are as many even numbers as there are counting numbers. And as many even numbers as fractions in the form of a ratio of two integers. But there are more irrational numbers than counting numbers.

i.e. there are different sizes of infinity. However, ∞+1 is the same size as ∞.
