  2. Power of 10 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_of_10

    m × 10 n. Or more compactly as: 10 n. This is generally used to denote powers of 10. Where n is positive, this indicates the number of zeros after the number, and where the n is negative, this indicates the number of decimal places before the number. As an example: 10 5 = 100,000 [1] 10 −5 = 0.00001 [2]

  3. Googol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googol

    To put in perspective the size of a googol, the mass of an electron, just under 10-30 kg, can be compared to the mass of the visible universe, estimated at between 10 50 and 10 60 kg. [5] It is a ratio in the order of about 10 80 to 10 90 , or at most one ten-billionth of a googol (0.00000001% of a googol).

    Two to the power of n, written as 2 n, is the number of values in which the bits in a binary word of length n can be set, where each bit is either of two values. A word, interpreted as representing an integer in a range starting at zero, referred to as an "unsigned integer", can represent values from 0 (000...000 2) to 2 n − 1 (111...111 2) inclusively.
