The 1*10³⁷th root of the fine constant , and ALL other numbers, whole or fractional = "1". Is this the explanation of where the fine constant, at ~1/137, comes from? And is the 1*10³⁷th root the common base for all numbers?

The 1*1037th root of the fine constant , and ALL other numbers, whole or fractional = "1".

I assume by writing it as "1", you mean "approximately 1". Of course that will be true of most numbers encountered in daily life, since 10³⁷ is so large. But you could just as easily use 10⁴⁵, 10¹²⁰, 10^2,459, etc. However, to say that the 10³⁷th root of all numbers is approximately 1 is grossly incorrect. I guarantee you that the 10³⁷th root of Graham's number, for example, is in itself a number too large to comprehend: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham%27s_number

Well, I must agree that it is a diminishing function, but both whole and fractional numbers tend towards "1". I came across this playing with the fine constant. My calculator ran out of 9's at 10³⁷. I then noticed that ANY number will result in 1 on my calculator. It does not work with any base, however. A base of 2 does not work. There is a range and 10³⁷ seems to be the midpoint.

As we work in base 10, I think it could be significant that the 10^37th root is the convergence point when 137 is so important to us. Perhaps only because that is the number I was "rooting out" to begin with, so to speak. 

Gotta sleep on this one....

Sounds like a technological limit then, not something intrinsic to mathematics.

Yes, the base of 10 is a human-centric thing. That in itself makes the claim behind this thread suspicious. Combine that with the fact that 10³⁷ is not the same as 137 and there seems to be no case to make here.

Alas, 'twas the vodka thinking. You are quite correct. Can I blame this on COVID19?

Sorry I started this topic. How can I get it removed? It won't let me just do it.

[Kryptid]

I can close it if you would like.

Yes, please do. Thanks
