There are no recurring patterns since pi is an irrational number. If there was a recurruing pattern, pi would be a rational number (it could be expressed exactly as a fraction).

If you mean are there any repeated patterns in pi, logically there have to be.

Take any digit - let's say 3. Whenever 3 occurs in the decimal expansion of pi it must be followed by another digit. There are ten possible digits, and when these have been exhausted, one of them must be repeated. So there will be a two-digit repeted pattern. Because pi never terminates, any given two-digit patterns will occur again and again and must be followed by another digit each time, so there will be three-digit repeated patterns. And so on and on.

There will (eventually) be repeated patterns of any length you choose - repeated hundred-digit patterns, or thousand-digit ones, or million-digit ones. You'll have to search a long, long way to find them, though! In the first 4 billion digits of pi there don't appear to be any repeating patterns longer than 10 digits.

How can you calculate the exact value of pi?

22 divided by 7 * * * * * That is an APPROXIMATE value of pi. The exact value cannot be calculated since pi is a transcendental number - a special kind of irrational number. It has an infinite decimal representation with no recurring pattern. That would be true in any base - binary, octal, or another base (other than pi itself, or a power of pi).


What is pi to the last 14 digits?

pi is a transcendental number, which is a kind of irrational number. That means that the decimal representation of pi does not end (nor does it have a recurring sequence). There is, therefore, no last digit.


Does pi end?

Pi has not been proven to end, currently we understand it to go on and on forever with no patterns or repetitions.


What kind of decimal is pi?

It is a non non-terminating, non-recurring decimal. It is an irrational number.
