Last number? As in the end? I hope you didn't bet much because as far as anyone currently knows, the decimal places for Pi continue infinitly. Great minds through mathematical history have worked on it, and someday it may be discovered to have an end, but I doubt that you'll find it by tomorrow...
I think your buddy got you.

There is no last number after the comma, just like there is no last '3' after the comma in
1/3=0,33333.....
But even more, for PI the numbers don't ever repeat. This is because PI is an irrational number, just like sqrt(2).

I can ewasily give you the answer to this. The number after the decdimal point is zero, but only if you write the value of Pi in base Pi. In base Pi, Pi is 1.0. It does get rid of that nasty recurring decimal part but causes problems when you want to represent anything else that isn't a simple fraction or power of Pi.
Pi is one of my favourite numbers, but I think I like the square root of two slightly more.

The number "1" is the first after the comma (in a German system; they use a comma where we use a period).
The last number hasn't been discovered yet.

Pi is a rational number, thus it never really ends,however recent studies have calculated pi to almost 100 billion digits.

Pi is a kind of irrational numbers. it doesnt have the last number and it has no pattern in it's decimal either (such as 0.666666... or 0.35673567....)
Some first numbers are:
3.1415926535
"How I want a drink alcoholic of course after the screw"
Just count the number of letters in every word of that sentence

Which comma? PI is a never ending, non repeating sequence.

there is no comma in Pi. it is a period.
the last number then is one of the numbers below
123456789

PI has gone upto 50 billion digit... and is a never ending one with one decimal... so dont know what you are talking of.
If you want to see number upto the 50th billion then check it here..
