He could have even said that that constant was almost certainly transcendental.
It always surprises me that almost all real are transcendental, but that there are only 2 transcendental real numbers I am familiar with: pi and e.
- dhosek 6y agoI forget the constant, but as I recall, that was likely true as well.
- sukilot 6y agoThat's because almost all transcendentals are not computable or nameable, whereas all algebraics are. So when you limit to the space of nameable computable numbers you get a different statistical intuition.
