In Math terms - what u stated is Integer. Then there are "real numbers". PI is a good example of a real number.


While it is true all whole numbers are integers not all integers are whole numbers. Same for Pi.


In Math, "whole number" has no place.


That is absurd. Math is often used to count objects and in that case it's really hard to have negative objects and the count is called a whole number.

Perhaps some simple set theory classes would help you.
