how the fuck i didn't realize that!!!!
Fuck,
so 1 in base pi is still 1, but 10 is pi
makes sense,
1 =pi ^ 0
10=pi^1
100 = pi^2
my intuition kept telling me that using an irrational base system would end up with all integers being irrational. didn't realize how easy it is to prove it otherwise
ie, I had a very bad conjecture and I gained better understanding why it was wrong
