a googolplex is a large number with a googol of zeros. A googol is a 1 with a hundred zeros. This means that a googol = 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000. Then this means a googleplex is 10 to the 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000th. Large number huh? Anyways, Carl Sagan, a guy who had a program about astronomy (he was astronomer) said "A googol is precisely as far from infinity as is the number one." He was right.

It doesn't appear you have a question there, sport, but I'll answer this one for you.
A googleplex is 10^(10^100)

incorrect. You seem to have one hundred zeros after the 'a million', it is a googol. A googolplex is a 'a million' suggested by technique of a googol of zeros. convinced, there are higher numbers - which incorporates the Greek 'Megiston' which feels like the quantity 10 with a circle drawn round it. It, like various the different extreme numbers, is in basic terms too large to have any actual which ability. absolutely everyone who tried to position in writing the completed representation of a googolplex might want to locate it no longer plausible to stuff the place of work artwork into the quantity of the commonplace universe. I advise no longer searching for such large numbers as they are previous all sensible which ability & comprehension.

A googolplex is the number previously stated in this forum. Carl Sagan is famous enough that you do not have to introduce him. His claim about the size of a googolplex is cute, but not true, as I am sure he knew.
In retrospect I see that my response may have been on the rude side. Sorry about that. It's rude but true.

A googolplex is darned big. It's equal to 10^(10^100).
A googolplex is so big that it's pretty much impossible to apply it to any real-world situation. It is much, much larger, for example, than the number of protons in the known universe. (It's impossible to even write the number down; for one, you wouldn't have enough time before you died (nor would every person in the world writing digits simultaneously), and for two, there isn't enough graphite in the known universe to make enough pencils to write it down.)

I thought a googleplex was google raised to the googlth power.

The answer to the only question I see is 10^(10^100).
10^(10^100) ≠ 10^000000000000 . . .
10^000000000000 . . . ≡ 1
