Would it bother you terribly to learn that googleplex is not
google^google, but only 10^google?

Would it bother you terribly to learn that there are no such
numbers? Googol and googolplex are the terms you are both
looking for.

Googol = a big number, Googolplex is an even larger number;
Google = a big search engine, Google-plex is the future networked
infrastructure of services owned by Google;
giggle = a small laugh, giggle-plex is a fit of laughter where you
can't stop giggling;
Gogol = a great writer, Gogol-plex is the delusion that you're a great
writer;
Godot = a big deal to two tramps waiting for him to arrive, Godot-plex
is the obsessive mindset of the two tramps;
Godel = a great mathematician, Godel-plex is the delusion that you can
correct an effectively generated mathematical system to be both
consistent and complete.

What are these? From the "AS" notation, Abel Summations?

Googol!! is considerably larger than Googolplex. In fact, it's equal to
2^(Googol/2) (Googol/2)!, whichy by Stirling's formula is approximately
10^10^(4.978 * 10^101), or slightly less than Googolplex^50 =
10^(50*Googol).

You use to kinds of magnification:
building the power of
iteration

What about tan?
For example: tan (( 90 - (1/ googol)) [degrees] )= ?

That wouldn't be possible... ;-) No. see tetration-forum. Also I posted this
here some weeks ago. AS: alternating sum

Ah: another one (the last one): did you know: Guglhupf (tm)?

There's also the Ackermann function, a generalized recursive
tetration function.
