(sqrt(2)) A physical calculator using all the atoms in the universe it could not store an arbitrary irrational number. Any physical device cannot give a correct answer to math performed on arbitrary irrational numbers because calculators can’t represent arbitrary irrational numbers. sqrt(2) is a lie. It might be possible to build a device that handles symbols of common IRs displaying the sqrt(2)/2 as 0.5(sqrt(2)).
