New Theories / Re: non-standard arguments about pi and measurement
« on: 03/09/2012 14:27:28 »Now we have sorted that out, how about answering the other question.
How did you measure how far a wheel rolled to six digits?
(And how did you measure the diameter to that accuracy and, come to think of it, how did you actually machine it to that accuracy?)
Never said I measured my wheel to six digits of accuracy, that is just the number necessary to display the actual ratio of the roll in the base 9/10 system we use. In other words I took the measurements from the length and diameter of the wheel, and when I divided them, it came out to that number, because of the base 9/10 system we use.
