Pythagoras had a problem with beans and irrationality. What really happened? I don't know! The square root of two is irrational, and beans are delicious.

If its A squared + Bsquared = C squared then it should write:
1 squared + 1 Squared = 2 Squared, 2 squared is 4 and the square root of 4 is 2.
So how was pythagoras wrong?

He didn't have a fear of beans. In his time, beans were used for voting; white for yes, black for no. So he told his followers to "Abstain from beans," meaning not to involve themselves in politics.
