um, if there were no equations to get them how would we have the value? anyway, there are equations for atleast pi, but i'm pretty sure there are for e too.

Has anyone ever thought that our views on infinity or even mathamatics is faulty. Maybe the way we are thinking is like Windoze software filled with bugs and loopholes. I mean is there anything that we can think of that is truly infinite :confused: Some people claim proof that the Universe is infinite and I know what my Physics teacher said but I can't help thinking that it is our own mathematic laws that make it hard to understand these anomalies. Sorry a little off topic :D
