    The idea that having variables which can take on an
    infinite range of real-valued values fascinates some
    people. But you can't, not really.
Well that would mean it has an infinite amount of bits in memory, right? Because to set one variable to exactly pi would mean you set it to something that usually would need an infinite amount of bits.
