At work at the moment so can’t go deep into it. But I think you misunderstand what non repeating numbers mean. Of course there are repeating numbers within pi which is fine, the issue would be if ALL the digits were to simply cycle over and repeat themselves. If however there are a few trillion digits then a series of 1’s and 0’s for ever, pi is still non repeating

Did you read what I responded to?

It could just become a series of 1’s repeating forever.

I did read it, I also wrote it. Wasn’t trying to put you down or anything just sharing a bit of knowledge I found interesting. I know many people (my self included at one point) assumed pi would have to include everything when that just isn’t true. Apologies if I did a bad job explaining it though

I wasn’t clear then, it’s not that it has to

It’s that it can until calculated
