A rational number is a number which can be expressed as a ratio of two integers. However, there are far more numbers that cannot be expressed in this fashion.

The set of rational numbers is not closed under the basic operation of taking square roots. There are also other operations whose results are not rational numbers. The two most important constant of mathematics are pi (geometry) and e (calculus) and both are Irrational Numbers.
