To compare numbers in scientific notation, say 5×10 4 and 2×10 5, compare the exponents first, in this case 5 > 4, so 2×10 5 > 5×10 4. If the exponents are equal, the mantissa (or coefficient) should be compared, thus 5×10 4 > 2×10 4 because 5 > 2.
-yllion (pronounced / aɪ lj ən /) [1] is a proposal from Donald Knuth for the terminology and symbols of an alternate decimal superbase [clarification needed] system. In it, he adapts the familiar English terms for large numbers to provide a systematic set of names for much larger numbers.

Computing – UTF-8: 2,147,483,648 (2 31) possible code points (U+0000 - U+7FFFFFFF) in the pre-2003 version of UTF-8 (including five- and six-byte sequences), before the UTF-8 code space was limited to the much smaller set of values encodable in UTF-16. Biology – base pairs in the genome: approximately 3.3 × 10 9 base pairs in the human ...
The total number of grains can be shown to be 2 64 −1 or 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 (eighteen quintillion, four hundred forty-six quadrillion, seven hundred forty-four trillion, seventy-three billion, seven hundred nine million, five hundred fifty-one thousand, six hundred and fifteen).
The long and short scales are two powers of ten number naming systems that are consistent with each other for smaller numbers, but are contradictory for larger numbers. [1] [2] Other numbering systems, particularly in East Asia and South Asia, have large number naming that differs from both the long and short scales.
Enough to uniquely identify one codon of genetic code. The size of code points in Base64; thus, often the entropy per character in a randomly-generated password. 7 bits – the size of code points in the ASCII character set – minimum length to store 2 decimal digits. 2 3: byte (B) 8 bits – (a.k.a. octet or octad(e)) on many computer ...
