- zamadatix 8y agoAbsolutely false, http://mathworld.wolfram.com/LiouvillesConstant.html http://mathworld.wolfram.com/LiouvillesConstant.html for instance contains only the digits 0 and 1 yet is not only irrational but transcendental even. Also the second part of your comment isn't making sense, it has been shown for Champernowne's constant so how can you say it hasn't been shown for any individually?
- kevinventullo 8y agoI wrote "irrational algebraic", meaning irrational and not transcendental. According to Wikipedia, no irrational algebraic number has been shown to be normal (normal is a slightly stronger condition; see last paragraph in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_number#Properties_and_examples https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_number#Properties_and_e...).
