User blog comment:MachineGunSuper/My challenge to type a googolplex on a computer (copy/paste)/@comment-30754445-20171230174622

Of-course, this cannot be done in our actual physical universe.

But we *can*, actually, write a computer program that prints a googolplex. A program which will actually work on an actual computer. The only catch is we would run out of paper (and time) before the program completes its run:

(note: this can obviously be done much more elegantly in a typeless language like Python. Unfortunately I do not know Python, so I'm forced to use this unwieldy variation)

10 PRINT "1";

20 FOR A#=1 TO 1000000000000000

30 FOR B#=1 TO 1000000000000000

40 FOR C#=1 TO 1000000000000000

50 FOR D#=1 TO 1000000000000000

60 FOR E#=1 TO 1000000000000000

70 FOR F#=1 TO 1000000000000000

80 FOR G#=1 TO 10000000000

90 PRINT "0";

100 NEXT G#

110 NEXT F#

120 NEXT E#

130 NEXT D#

140 NEXT C#

150 NEXT B#

160 NEXT A#

170 END
