How about ANY FINITE SEQUENCE AT ALL?

  • The jury is out on whether every finite sequence of digits is contained in pi.

    However, there are a multitude of real numbers that contain every finite sequence of digits when written in base 10. Here’s one, which is defined by concatenating the digits of every non-negative integer in increasing order. It looks like this:

    0 . 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 ...

      fun fact, “most” real numbers have this property. If you were to mark each one on a number line, you’d fill the whole line out. Numbers that don’t have this property are vanishingly rare.
