How big is a Googolplex?
« on: June 18, 2013, 11:32:13 AM »
Just how big is the number GOOGOLPLEX?
Well it is too big to be written down in full as there is not enough space to do so in the entire universe!!!! You can write it like this - 1010-100 or 10 to the power of 1 with 100 more zeroes after it.    :eek


Here is a link explaining it - but be warned - you need to have a fairly articulate mind to appreciate it...

Enjoy!Cheers, Diesel

I doubt if I need to use a number that large.

it's to early in the day to think about.
