Mysterious Circle Numbers. Does <i>π</i><sub>p,q</sub> Approach <i>π</i><sub>p</sub> When <i>q</i> Is Tending to <i>p</i>?

This paper aims to introduce a mathematical-philosophical type of question from the fascinating world of generalized circle numbers to the widest possible readership. We start with recalling well-known (in part from school) properties of the polygonal approximation of the common circle when approxim...
