The word was coined by 9-year old Milton Sirotta. He had been asked by his uncle, the mathematician Edward Kasner, what the huge number should should be called.
Milton sirotta coined the term googol!
The number first used by nine-year-old Milton Sirotta in 1940 is known as a "googol." A googol is represented as 10^100, a 1 followed by 100 zeros. This term was introduced by mathematician Edward Kasner, who asked his young nephew, Milton Sirotta, to come up with a name for such a large number.
1 googol is 10100. Or 1 followed by 100 zero's.
The number you provided is called a "googol." A googol is equal to 10 to the power of 100, or 1 followed by 100 zeros. It was coined by mathematician Edward Kasner in 1938. The term "googol" and its larger counterpart, "googolplex," are often used to illustrate the concept of extremely large numbers.
the word "googol" was first used in 1940, so probably around then.
The word googol is pronounced like the search engine Google - with a stress on the first syllable.
2 googol
googol and one, googol and two, googol and three...
There are (googol+1) of them.
A "googol" is a mathematical term that represents the number (10^{100}), which means it is a 1 followed by 100 zeros. So, a googol has exactly 100 zeros. This term was coined by mathematician Edward Kasner in the early 20th century.
Googol can be written as googol or 10^100.
A googolgon would theoretically have (10^{100}) sides, as a googol is represented by the number 1 followed by 100 zeros. This term is not commonly used in geometry, as it represents an extremely large number of sides. In practical terms, a shape with a googol number of sides would be indistinguishable from a circle due to the sheer quantity of sides.
