About exact manipulation of PI and its powers... Le 10/04/2015 02:04, Douglas McClean a écrit :
You could definitely use the same approach for any one irrational number you were interested in. With a tuple of integers you could track a handful of irrationals.
There are many differences between "just" *irrational* and *transcendental* numbers. The work with algebraic / transcendental extensions is a bit different. No polynomial of PI with rational coefficients will vanish. If you replace PI by sqrt(2), well, you know the answer. Jerzy Karczmarczuk
