August 8 2008 : 08 08 08

Have you notice something strange in August month ?

8 August 2008 means 08 08 08 :)

August 8 is the 220th day of the year (221st in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. There are 145 days remaining until the end of the year.

An interesting statistic for interesting times, India's population is about to reach a series of #1's. thats means India's Population to hit 1,111,111,111 before 08-08-08. I recently noticed this numeric anomaly when analyzing the Census Bureau's India Population Projection page. Ironically the World's population at (World POPClock Projection) is going to hit 6,666,666,666 by June 1, 2008 which means India will have exactly 1/6th of the world's population this quarter.

Mathematics: Numbers

These are some of the numbers that you may or may not be familiar with. Maybe sometime in this century before I die of old age will I type out the total number of a googleplex.

1,000= Thousand 1,000,000 = Million 1,000,000,000= Billion 1,000,000,000,000= Trillion 1,000,000,000,000,000= Quadrillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000= Quintillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Sextillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Septillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Octillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Nonillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Decillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Undecillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Duodecillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Tridecillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Quathordecillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Quindecillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Sexdecillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Septendecillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Octodecillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Novemdecillion 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000= Vigintillion 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000,000,000,000 = Googol. A "1" followed by 303 zeroes is called a centiliion. I'm just to lazy to write all that zeroes. A googol by the way is a "1" followed by 100 zeroes. A googolplex is a "1" followed by a googol zeroes. 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, 000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000,000,000,000 = Centillion Well lookie! Look who's lazy after all! I don't think I'll add a googolplex though.
