ELi5: If pi has infinite digits, why doesn't that mean that there is a copy of the matrix.mp4 In it somewhere? 

The other day I was reading something about pi on one of the learn math subreddits I think, and someone commented about the fact that if pi had infinite digits then it probably has a copy of the matrix.mp4 in it somewhere, since computer data is all numbers anyway..
 which makes sense but then someone said that's not the case. how is this true?

There are many types of infinite numbers, and some of them have patterns to their digits, even if they don't repeat.

For instance, consider: 0.01001000100001000001...

It's an infinite number and there are no repeating patterns, but it's also pretty clear that the number doesn't contain '...01110...' anywhere in it.

Pi, on the other hand, probably *does* contain all kinds of crazy strings, because it is thought to be what's called normal - meaning that you're not only infinitely long, but that your infinite digits occur more or less randomly.

So it's possible that really long sections of pi *does* contain the Matrix, because pi is thought to be normal, unlike the number 0.01001000100001000001... which definitely can't.
