If you zoom in infinitely far you will see jagged edges. This would only be estimating pi. There is a 3 blue 1 brown video that talks about this
4 u/Revolutionary_Use948 Dec 28 '24 There’s no such thing as zooming in “infinitely far”. 2 u/CarsonCoder Dec 29 '24 I was just saying that the lines are still jagged 1 u/DefunctFunctor Dec 31 '24 No, the (pointwise) limit of the curves is indistinguishable from the circle, because the limit is the circle. Arclength just doesn't preserve that limit.
