Re: An Infinitely Large Circle... [Re: YidakiMan]

I think this is what YidakiMan already said...

But as the diameter goes to infinity, the circumference will go to infinity faster (pi times faster). So the circle will always have a curve.

Though at a point on the circle the line will look more and more straight.

Math has always interested me, and that's a pretty amazing piece of info, thx..

"We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Arabia. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively exceeds the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here." - Richard Dawkins

Leibniz was a very smart person that made a lot of discoveries in calculus.  His discoveries are important as Newton's.  The point is he was self-taught.  You were spot on with the concept of a limit, just slightly off.  :congrats:
