pie.

Infinate is easily longer than pi.

Having a never-ending decimal doesn't make a number large, how stupid ARE you people.

Seeing as how a perfect sphere has infinite faces, and pi is used to find the circumference of a circle ... pi is infinity times a circle's diameter. :O

dear god the idiocy

I think we're all kinda getting mixed up on what the OP is asking. Unless he really is dumb and is asking what's bigger, the number 3 with decimals or infinite, that's not what it seems like he's asking.

He's asking whats bigger, infinite or how long pi goes on for. If pi goes on infinitively, then they'd be the same. If it doesn't, infinite is bigger because pi would stop

either way the questions kinda dumb it seems as it's just "does pi go on for infinity"

that's the only logical question unless, like i said, he really is asking "WHATS BIGGER 3 OR INFINITE HURP"

A decimal doesnt make a number bigger unless its 1 versus 1.something
3.anything < infinity

dear god the idiocy
There is no room for God in math because infinity is bigger than him and he created pi which you said is small.

we all know infinite is right B)

Pi just gets finer and finer, and infinity just goes on forever.

How can you not realize that a number a little over 3 is astronomically smaller than the largest number (despite it not technically being a number) in existence?

uh no, "how long pi goes on for" is infinite. durrr. it's a never-ending decimal.

Better question:  


if(strlen($pi) > 1/0)
   echo("Pi has more than infinite numbers");
else if(strlen(%pi) < 1/0)
   echo("Pi has less than infinite numbers");
else
   echo("Math hates you");

uh no, "how long pi goes on for" is infinite. durrr. it's a never-ending decimal.

It appears you misread everything I said. Please go back and read it again. I was phrasing it as the OP would be.

The digits of Pi are infinite.



You see here, we can just keep getting more and more exact to pi, but we can never trace it down the final decimal place.
