When Software Decides Math Is Optional
Behold, the digital betrayal of infinite series! This software claims 1.9999... is just 1.9, which is like saying π is exactly 3 "because I said so." Every mathematician just felt a disturbance in the force. In the real mathematical world, 1.9999... (with infinitely repeating 9s) is precisely equal to 2. Not "kind of" or "almost" - it's the same damn number written differently. The proof is elegant and established. But apparently this software flunked its calculus class and is now confidently spreading mathematical misinformation like it's got tenure.
