This list includes all islands in the world larger than 1,000 km 2 (390 sq mi). For size and location reference, the four continental landmasses are also shown. Continental landmasses Continental landmasses are not usually classified as islands despite being completely surrounded by water. [Note 1] However, because the definition of continent varies between geographers, the Americas are ...
The register width of a processor determines the range of values that can be represented in its registers. Though the vast majority of computers can perform multiple-precision arithmetic on operands in memory, allowing numbers to be arbitrarily long and overflow to be avoided, the register width limits the sizes of numbers that can be operated on (e.g., added or subtracted) using a single ...
A standardized way of writing very large numbers allows them to be easily sorted in increasing order, and one can get a good idea of how much larger a number is than another one. 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 .
The Indian numbering system uses the named numbers common between the long and short scales up to ten thousand. For larger values, it includes named numbers at each multiple of 100; including lakh (10 5) and crore (10 7). [1] English also has words, such as zillion, that are used informally to mean large but unspecified amounts.
In total, Java has more than 150 mountains. [22] Java's mountains and highlands split the interior into a series of relatively isolated regions suitable for wet-rice cultivation; the rice lands of Java are among the richest in the world. [23] Java was the first place where Indonesian coffee was grown, starting in 1699.
It is required to be at least 16 bits, and is often smaller than a standard integer, but this is not required. [9] [10] A conforming program can assume that it can safely store values between −(2 15 −1) [11] and 2 15 −1, [12] but it may not assume that the range is not larger. In Java, a short is always a 16-bit integer.
Females were smaller than males and weighed between 75 and 115 kg (165 and 254 lb). [4] The smaller body size of the Javan tiger is attributed to Bergmann’s rule and the size of the available prey species in Java, which are smaller than the deer and bovid species on the Asian mainland.

To help compare different distances this section lists lengths starting at 10 15 m (1 Pm or 1 trillion km or 6685 astronomical units (AU) or 0.11 light-years ).
