 | | That will look identical to a regular myriagon, since the 10,000 sides of a myriagon of any reasonable size will be too small to distinguish. |
 | | For example, with a diameter of 10 feet (a rather large drawing!), the circumference would be 31.4 feet, and 1/10,000 of this, the approximate size of an edge of the inscribed myriagon, would be a little more than 1/32 of an inch. |
 | | On the other hand, if you don't need a _regular_ myriagon, just make a 100 by 100 array of points and do a dot-to-dot on them, maybe a zigzag up and down the columns, to connect them all in one loop. |
