If the universe is also infinite, then you could calculate Pi with X% of the universe's energy, where X is an arbitrarily small positive number.
- simiones 6y agoIf the universe is infinite, you could compute all of the digits of Pi in finite time by using an infinite amount of parallel computers, true. But computing a percentage of an infinite number (total energy in the universe) doesn't make sense.
