Conway chained arrow notation

Conway chained arrow notation, created by mathematician John Horton Conway, is a means of expressing certain extremely large numbers. It is simply a finite sequence of positive integers separated by rightward arrows, e.g. . As with most combinatorial notations, the definition is recursive. In this case the notation eventually resolves to being the leftmost number raised to some (usually enormous) integer power. (Wikipedia).

MegaFavNumbers: Conway's Chained Arrow Notation

This video is for the #MegaFavNumbers project. So far, almost 200 people have submitted their favorite numbers over 1 million. I am choosing a number that is bigger than Graham's number. This can be done with a mathematical notation called "Conway's Chained Arrow Notation". This notation

What is the definition of scientific notation

👉 Learn about scientific notations. Scientific notation is a convenient way of writing very large or very small numbers. A number written in scientific notation is of the form a * 10^n where a is the first non-zero number between 1 and 10, (1 included) and n is the number of digits up to t
