pi ends with the digit 9, followed by an infinite sequence of other digits.

That's a very interesting use of the word "ends".

It's like how they called the fourth Friday the 13th movie "The Final Chapter".

The Rolling Stones doing their final concert for about a hundred and fifty years now.

True but I think the Fast & the Furious franchise has a better shot at giving Pi a run for it's money.

TBF, if your goal is to generate the most valid sentence that directly answers the question, it's only one minor abstract noun that's broken here.

Edit: I wouldn't be surprised if there's a substantial drop in the probability of a digit being listed after the leading 9 (3.14159...), even, so it is "last" in a sense.

Edit again: Man, Baader-Meinhof so hard. Somehow pi to 5 digits came up more than once in 24 hours, so yes.
