Googol and the googolplex.

Type 1 zero a second. Starting at birth until you reach 100 and die.

3,153,600,000 zeros approximately.

Imagine a computer typing out 1,000,000,000 zeros each second. At the same time as you, for your life span:

3,153,600,000,000,000,000 approximately.

Compared to:

10^1,000,000,000,000,000,000,0­00,000,000,000,000,000,000,000­,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,0­00,000,000,000,000,000,000,000­,000,000,000,000

Even a billion more computers wouldn’t be able to write out half the number in 100 years.
