There is also a googolplex, which is 10 to the power of a googol. |
Even bigger than a googol, according to Kasner, is a googolplex, a 1 followed by a googol zeros. |
But in addition, 10 power 100 is a googol, a number that inspired its name to the company. |
There's no way of knowing when an idea will coalesce and the stars align, producing a discovery that solves a crucial problem, creates a windfall of googol dimensions, or triggers a smile. |
Steven J. Wilson's Integermania page has an incomplete set of solutions up to a googol, along with several related problems. |
Kasner also defined a much larger number, the googolplex, which is 1 followed by a googol of zeros. |
