[Its square] is the principal frequency of the sound one hears when a kettledrum is struck." - Quoted from the book by Steven R. Finch. %C A115368 Siegel proves (the Main Theorem) that J_0(z) is transcendental if z is algebraic and nonzero, but since in our case J_0(z) = 0 is not transcendental it follows that z cannot be algebraic. - _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Oct 20 2020 %D A115368 Chi Keung Cheung et al., Getting Started with Mathematica, 2nd Ed.
