Actually, your response to the first question (that there are no constants) impplies your response to the second question (that it's un predictable).

But if this is true, why does it say in my book something about thisstudent of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology called Mitchell Feigenbaum realised this constant, 4.66920.... whcih was a nonlinear pattern, if there are supposed to be no constants?
