The more precise definition of transcendentals is that they are not the root of any polynomial with rational coefficients; that's why the game they demonstrate here doesn't include "multiplying it by zero" or "raising it to the zero power". The polynomials corresponding to these moves do not have unique roots. (Tell me what value of x makes the following equation true: 0*x + 0 = 0. Answer: all of them.)

@tomkerruish2982

Every polynomial with rational coefficients can be converted into one with integral coefficients by multiplying by a common multiple of the denominators. They will have precisely the same roots.

Even more precise definition: a complex number is transcendental if it is not the root of any _nonzero_ polynomial with rational coefficients. Of course, replacing 'rational' with 'integer' makes no difference to the definition.

Have you ever made a video about Euler-Mascheronni constant? Also known as Napier's constant or number e?? I believe a lot of people already know but a lot don't and the history behind it must be quite interesting, so many mathematicians behind and using it… An intro for logs, natural log, calculus… I know that the function (1+1/n)ˆn; if n gets arbitrarily big, it tends to e Where else can the number appear??

I see that in this videos thumbnail you have pi tetration e. I'm sure this wasn't on purpose, but it leads me into the following request. Could you do a video on what comes after exponents? Aka tetration. Or a video describing all the hyperoperations? Hyperoperation 1 is addition hyperoperation 2 is multiplication hyperoperation 3 is exponents, hyperoperation 4 is tetration, and so on.

As an engineer, I can confirm that pi is 22/7. I can count to 20, but only if I take my socks off.

And under no circumstances could I enjoy mathematics and, for example, watch KZread videos on the subject.

How to make π: To make the dough for the pie crust, mix 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon each salt and sugar in a medium-size bowl. Cut 2 sticks chilled unsalted butter into pieces. With a pastry blender, cut in butter, working until mixture resembles coarse meal. 2. Add 4 tablespoons ice water; work with hands until dough comes together. If dough is still crumbly, add more ice water a tablespoon at a time (up to 4 more tablespoons). Do not overwork. 3. Divide dough in half, and flatten halves into disks. Wrap disks separately in plastic; refrigerate at least 1 hour. 4. To form the pie shell, roll the dough on a floured surface into a 14-inch round. Wrap around rolling pin and carefully unroll over a 9-inch pie plate. 5. Fit gently into bottom and side of plate. Use kitchen shears to trim dough to a 1-inch overhang; fold under, and seal to form a rim. 6. Crimp rim with fingertips and knuckle. Repeat with remaining dough; wrap each with plastic, stack, and freeze.
