The probability of getting any number with a given set of characteristics is pretty much 0, but that doesn’t mean the number doesn’t exist once generated.
Comment on A number chosen truly at random will have infinite digits
al4s@feddit.de 10 months agoThe probability of getting a finite number is pretty much zero.
For any range [0; n], where n is finite, there are always infinitely many numbers larger than n, so the probability of getting a number in said range is n/(n+infinity). I feel very confident in saying that something with that probability will never happen.

If there’s any probability of an event, on an infinite timeline, it occurs infinite times.
