AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the mathematical expression 10^(3^4) and its relation to large numbers like googol and octrillion. Participants clarify that a googol is defined as 10^100, while the term "octrillion" is debated, with one suggesting it might be equivalent to googol. There is confusion regarding the original question's validity, leading to the conclusion that the expression cannot equal 100 googol googols. The conversation highlights the need for precise definitions in mathematical discussions. Ultimately, the question appears flawed and may require reevaluation.

could someone show or help to show me the proof of 10 cubed squared to the four could be 100 octrillion googol googol googol googol googol googol googol googols? I hope i have wrote it out right.

Thankyou sir's

((103)2)4= 103*2*4= 1024.

Now, what is your definition of "octrillion" and "google"?
 
hmm I am not sure hence my difficulty, googol would be 10^100 and is octrillion 10^27 or something, I am not sure.

Actually, that would be googol. A Google is a web search engine.
 
lmao, yes that would be the one, maybe ill casually edit my previous posts.
 
hmm so basically it can't ever be that, the question seems so flawed, maybe i have copied it down wrong, ill have to check tomorrow
 

Thread 'Fermat's Last Theorem'

Fermat's Last Theorem has long been one of the most famous mathematical problems, and is now one of the most famous theorems. It simply states that the equation $$ a^n+b^n=c^n $$ has no solutions with positive integers if ##n>2.## It was named after Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665). The problem itself stems from the book Arithmetica by Diophantus of Alexandria. It gained popularity because Fermat noted in his copy "Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos, et...

Thread 'What Exactly is Dirac’s Delta Function? - Insight'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...

Thread 'Imaginary Pythagorus'

Thread 'Imaginary Pythagorus'

I posted this in the Lame Math thread, but it's got me thinking. Is there any validity to this? Or is it really just a mathematical trick? Naively, I see that i2 + plus 12 does equal zero2. But does this have a meaning? I know one can treat the imaginary number line as just another axis like the reals, but does that mean this does represent a triangle in the complex plane with a hypotenuse of length zero? Ibix offered a rendering of the diagram using what I assume is matrix* notation...
