  • Grade 7/8 Math Circles the Scale of Numbers Introduction
    Faculty of Mathematics Centre for Education in Waterloo, Ontario N2L 3G1 Mathematics and Computing Grade 7/8 Math Circles November 21/22/23, 2017 The Scale of Numbers Introduction Last week we quickly took a look at scientific notation, which is one way we can write down really big numbers. We can also use scientific notation to write very small numbers. 1 × 103 = 1; 000 1 × 102 = 100 1 × 101 = 10 1 × 100 = 1 1 × 10−1 = 0:1 1 × 10−2 = 0:01 1 × 10−3 = 0:001 As you can see above, every time the value of the exponent decreases, the number gets smaller by a factor of 10. This pattern continues even into negative exponent values! Another way of picturing negative exponents is as a division by a positive exponent. 1 10−6 = = 0:000001 106 In this lesson we will be looking at some famous, interesting, or important small numbers, and begin slowly working our way up to the biggest numbers ever used in mathematics! Obviously we can come up with any arbitrary number that is either extremely small or extremely large, but the purpose of this lesson is to only look at numbers with some kind of mathematical or scientific significance. 1 Extremely Small Numbers 1. Zero • Zero or `0' is the number that represents nothingness. It is the number with the smallest magnitude. • Zero only began being used as a number around the year 500. Before this, ancient mathematicians struggled with the concept of `nothing' being `something'. 2. Planck's Constant This is the smallest number that we will be looking at today other than zero.

  • Hyperoperations and Nopt Structures
    Hyperoperations and Nopt Structures Alister Wilson Abstract (Beta version) The concept of formal power towers by analogy to formal power series is introduced. Bracketing patterns for combining hyperoperations are pictured. Nopt structures are introduced by reference to Nept structures. Briefly speaking, Nept structures are a notation that help picturing the seed(m)-Ackermann number sequence by reference to exponential function and multitudinous nestings thereof. A systematic structure is observed and described.

  • Ever Heard of a Prillionaire? by Carol Castellon Do You Watch the TV Show
    Ever Heard of a Prillionaire? by Carol Castellon Do you watch the TV show “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” hosted by Regis Philbin? Have you ever wished for a million dollars? "In today’s economy, even the millionaire doesn’t receive as much attention as the billionaire. Winners of a one-million dollar lottery find that it may not mean getting to retire, since the million is spread over 20 years (less than $3000 per month after taxes)."1 "If you count to a trillion dollars one by one at a dollar a second, you will need 31,710 years. Our government spends over three billion per day. At that rate, Washington is going through a trillion dollars in a less than one year. or about 31,708 years faster than you can count all that money!"1 I’ve heard people use names such as “zillion,” “gazillion,” “prillion,” for large numbers, and more recently I hear “Mega-Million.” It is fairly obvious that most people don’t know the correct names for large numbers. But where do we go from million? After a billion, of course, is trillion. Then comes quadrillion, quintrillion, sextillion, septillion, octillion, nonillion, and decillion. One of my favorite challenges is to have my math class continue to count by "illions" as far as they can. 6 million = 1x10 9 billion = 1x10 12 trillion = 1x10 15 quadrillion = 1x10 18 quintillion = 1x10 21 sextillion = 1x10 24 septillion = 1x10 27 octillion = 1x10 30 nonillion = 1x10 33 decillion = 1x10 36 undecillion = 1x10 39 duodecillion = 1x10 42 tredecillion = 1x10 45 quattuordecillion = 1x10 48 quindecillion = 1x10 51

  • Large Numbers from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Large numbers From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about large numbers in the sense of numbers that are significantly larger than those ordinarily used in everyday life, for instance in simple counting or in monetary transactions. The term typically refers to large positive integers, or more generally, large positive real numbers, but it may also be used in other contexts. Very large numbers often occur in fields such as mathematics, cosmology, cryptography, and statistical mechanics. Sometimes people refer to numbers as being "astronomically large". However, it is easy to mathematically define numbers that are much larger even than those used in astronomy.

  • 11. How Large Is Infinity?
    General Questions 25 • last expression, you need to divide a by a sequence bn with limit 0. But when a bn goes to zero, could go to +∞, if bn > 0, or to –∞, if bn < 0, or not exist bn a at all if bn alternates. Therefore, the expression must remain undefined. 0 Mathematicians call expressions like this “indeterminate forms.” In some cases, they can be thought of as having a certain value, while in other cases, as having another value or none at all. 11. HOW LARGE IS INFINITY? The first real opportunity where even young children can experience a “sense of wonder” in a mathematical context is when they make the basic observation that counting never ends. Typically, children are fascinated by very large numbers, and so was the 9-year-old Milton Sirotta, who became famous for inventing the name googol for the number 10100 in 1920. Later on, his uncle, the mathematician Edward Kasner (1878–1955), wrote about this in a book Mathematics and the Imagination, and still later, other imagi- native young fellows named their company Google after the number googol to indicate the large amount of data handled by Internet search engines. Although the number googol is already unimaginably large, we can eas- ily think of even larger numbers, for example, googol + 1 or 10googol (which has been called googolplex), or even the factorial of googol, or googolgoogol. The process of generating larger numbers from any given number obviously has no end. Therefore, the set of integers certainly cannot be finite. If it were, then there would be a largest number, which is impossible, because for any given number we can immediately find a bigger one just by adding 1.

  • Finitely Big Numbers Name______
    Finitely Big Numbers Name____________________ 9 9 99 or in order to avoid ambiguity 9(9 ) = 9387420489. That is 9 to the 9th power of 9. Try plugin this number to your calculator and it cannot handle it. We can try and understand this process using small digits, such as 3. 3 3(3 ) = 327= 7,625,597,484,987 4 But at the instant that we try to calculate 4(4 ) = 4256 our calculators, even graphing calculators breaks down 5 (even using a PC and MS excel 2010 cannot handle 5(5 ) = 53215 or beyond). 9 9(9 ) = 9387420489 has approximately 369, 692, 000 digits. In normal script, this number would be between 500 to 550 miles long. If you had a machine that would print one digit per second, printing the entire number would take approximately 11 years! So even very shortly written finite numbers can be HUGE and a bit incomprehensible. In order to put the big finite numbers in perspective here are some reference magnitudes that use the U.S. and modern British (short scale).

  • In the Complex Plane
    Solving F (z + 1) = bF (z) in the complex plane William Paulsen and Samuel Cowgill Abstract The generalized tetration, defined by the equation F (z+1) = bF (z) in the complex plane with F (0) = 1, is considered for any b > e1=e. By comparing other solutions to Kneser's solution, natural conditions are found which force Kneser's solution to be the unique solution to the equation. This answers a conjecture posed by Trappmann and Kouznetsov. Also, a new iteration method is developed which numerically approximates the function F (z) with an error of less than 10−50 for most bases b, using only 180 nodes, with each iteration gaining one or two places of accuracy. This method can be applied to other problems involving the Abel equation. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 26A18, 30D05, 39B12 Keywords: Tetration, Abel's functional equation, iteration, cross-track method. 1 Background Throughout history, mathematicians have faced the problem of representing larger and larger numbers. Exponential notation was a huge improvement over standard representations; however, there still can be a problem with “floating overflow" if the exponent gets too large. One solution is to find a function with super-fast growth [16]. One proposed function would be the tetration function, whose name comes from tetra- (four) and iteration. Addition by a positive integer n can be thought of as repeated incrementation, multiplication by n is done by repeated addition, and exponentiation by n is repeated multiplication. So a fourth level operation would be repeated exponentiation using the initial base b: b ·· bb |{z} n Although there are many different notations for this operation, we will use the iterated exponential notation x ·b n b· expb (x) = b with n b's: n The tetration function for base b can then be expressed as F (n) = expb (1).
