A non-terminating digit sequence
does not determine a real number.
A non.terminating decimal determines
no less than one real number (line.point) and
no more than one real number (line.point).
But it is impossible to construct or define or find or recognize or communicate a non-terminating decimal without using a finite formula, and be it as simple as "0.111...". Therefore my above statement is true.
A formula can define a non-terminating decimal and its limit, a real number. A non-terminating digit sequence without defining formula cannot define anything because it cannot be handled with eniugh precision. Always almost all digits are dark.
