    Can maths nerds answer this?

    The digits of Pi are infinite and non-repeating, would that mean the digits can contain sequences that correspond to the binary representation of the entire Wikipedia?

      Yes and no. Pi is assumed to be normal, which means that any non-infinite sequence happens in pi. However, the digits of 0.1011011101111011111… are infinite and non-repeating, and yet you’ll never see a 00 or a 2.
