A332084 Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the smallest m >= 0 such that floor(Pi*n^m) == k (mod n), -1 if one does not exist, k = 0..n-1. 1

%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the smallest m >= 0 such that floor(Pi*n^m) == k (mod n), -1 if one does not exist, k = 0..n-1.

%C Pi is normal in base n >= 2 if and only if in every row N, such that N is a power of n, -1 does not appear. Pi is absolutely normal if and only if -1 never appears.

%C Conjecture: Pi is absolutely normal, meaning that -1 will never appear.

%C This triangle is an instance of the more general f(n,k,r), where f(n,k,r) is the smallest m >= 0 such that floor(r*n^m) == k (mod n) (-1 if one does not exist) and r is irrational. The same conditions for normalcy apply.
