Power of 10. Visualisation of powers of 10 from one to 1 trillion. A power of 10 is any of the integer powers of the number ten; in other words, ten multiplied by itself a certain number of times (when the power is a positive integer). By definition, the number one is a power (the zeroth power) of ten. The first few non-negative powers of ten are:
John Horton Conway and Richard K. Guy [15] have suggested that N-plex be used as a name for 10 N. This gives rise to the name googolplexplex for 10 googolplex = 10 10 10 100. Conway and Guy [15] have proposed that N-minex be used as a name for 10 −N, giving rise to the name googolminex for the reciprocal of a googolplex, which is written as ...
1/52! chance of a specific shuffle Mathematics: The chances of shuffling a standard 52-card deck in any specific order is around 1.24 × 10 −68 (or exactly 1 ⁄ 52!) [4] Computing: The number 1.4 × 10 −45 is approximately equal to the smallest positive non-zero value that can be represented by a single-precision IEEE floating-point value.
Kevin ( / ˈkɛvɪn /) is the anglicized form of the Irish masculine given name Caoimhín ( Irish pronunciation: [ˈkiːvʲiːnʲ]; Middle Irish: Caoimhghín [ˈkəiṽʲʝiːnʲ]; Old Irish: Cóemgein [ˈkoiṽʲɣʲinʲ]; Latinized as Coemgenus ).

[2] Its popularity derives from it being the name of the legendary hero King Arthur. It may derive from the Celtic Artos meaning “Bear”.
The earliest evidence of the name Oregon has Spanish origins. The term " orejón " comes from the historical chronicle Relación de la Alta y Baja California (1598) [2] written by Rodrigo Montezuma, a man of New Spain.

While a variety of theories have been postulated for the name of Canada, its origin is now accepted as coming from the St. Lawrence Iroquoian word kanata, meaning 'village' or ...
As a biprime with proper divisors 1, 3 and 7, twenty-one has a prime aliquot sum of 11 within an aliquot sequence containing only one composite number (21, 11, 1, 0); it is the second composite number with an aliquot sum of 11, following 18. 21 is the first member of the second cluster of consecutive discrete semiprimes (21, 22), where the next such cluster is (33, 34, 35).
