Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
In transcendental number theory, the Lindemann–Weierstrass theorem is a result that is very useful in establishing the transcendence of numbers. It states the following.  
In other words the extension field  ℚ(eα1, ..., eαn)  has transcendence degree  n  over  ℚ. 

An equivalent formulation (Baker 1990, Chapter 1, Theorem 1.4), is the following.   This equivalence transforms a linear relation over the algebraic numbers into an algebraic relation over  ℚ: by using the fact that a symmetric polynomial whose arguments are all conjugates of one another gives a rational number.
The theorem is named for Ferdinand von Lindemann and Karl Weierstrass. Lindemann proved in 1882 that  eα  is transcendental for every non-zero algebraic number  α,  thereby establishing that π is transcendental (see below). Weierstrass proved the above more general statement in 1885.The theorem, along with the Gelfond–Schneider theorem, is extended by Baker's theorem, and all of these are further generalized by Schanuel's conjecture.
