it is someone who has aged 100 years onwards as easy as that
That's cool, but do you think anyone will ever use it? Maybe to describe gas in the next 100 years lol. I would hate to write that out. What if you missed a 0?
A googel is a 1 followed by 100 zeros:
QUOTE 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000000000000000000000000 And a googelplex is a 1 followed by a googel zeros: This will take up probable 20 miles of room if writted out on a line, just think about it, a 1 followed by a googel zeros
Is there even a reason to make such a word as Centillian or Googleplex?
I don't see much point in making a number that has 103 zeros...
well i think it would make sense that if you had to use it use it as a fraction to represent it instead of having to write down all the zeros.
So for example if you wrote it it would be suach as 250 centillian = 250/103
Iīm confused. I was never good at maths
 but whatīs the point of this? I mean... if there is a name for a number which is a 1 followed by 103 zeros... should be another with 33 zeros, 8 zeros, 3426899 zeros? I suppose there must be a logical reason for 103 zeros. If not, itīs completely dumb. 
It is completely and utterly impossible to write a googelplex. Even if all the known matter in the universe was converted into paper or disk space, there would not be enough matter to write down a googelplex!

lol I think it is just a way to name them for any given reason. People who are interested in numbers will use it like those trying to find the largest prime number. I think it is also just to say that there are huge numbers. People will use it to describe a large quantity of something just to exagerate like a billion times or whatever. There are other uses but we generally won't need it.

Googelplex
What Is A Centillian? Actually, a Googelplex is a googel time a googel... So something like a million zeroes. I can think of no reason to have a number that big. But thats probably why google is called that exact thing! :D -reply by LiveAndLetLive
Alright, you cant a googelplex out. Its simple. The number atoms in the universe is estimated to be between 10^69 to 10^82.... a googelplex has a googel, or 10^100 numbers... so even if every atom in the universe represented a number.... theres not NEARLY enough atoms to make a googelplex. In fact the number of atoms in the universe would only be 0.0000000000000001% of the number needed to write out a googelplex.

So for example if you wrote it it would be suach as 250 centillian = 250/103 Surely you'd use scientific notation? 2.5x10^105? Or is it 2.5x10^103? Not sure, but 250/103 is wrong, I think
First time I heard about googleplex was the 6th grade, but now they thought of a new one.
That is just insane and the grahams number link that just make my skull want to explode. I don't think even stephen Hawking could do anything with that, without spending a few years with it.
