No, Irrational Numbers must continue past the decimal indefinitely, without a pattern, and can't be expressed as a fraction.

Not only does 2.56 stop at the hundredth decimal, but it can also be expressed as the fraction 256/100.

Its worth noting that 1.999999...forever repeating is also a rational number.

Irrational numbers are usually things like pi, the square root of two, etc.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
