HC Notation

HC Notation is dervied from Orteil's popular online game Cookie Clicker and takes the form [a,b]HC. After a person resets the game they gain what is called "Heavenly Chips", the more heavenly chips you gain the more each successive heavenly chip costs.

The formula to find how many cookies is takes to obtain with a given number of heavenly chips is as follows:

$$\text{Cookies needed (total)}=\frac{HC(HC + 1)}{2}\cdot 10^{12}$$ HC takes it a step further by adding different "tier's" of heavenly chips that follow a similar formula

$$\text{Tier 1 HC (Regular HC)}=\frac{Tier 2 HC(Tier 2 HC +1)}{2}\cdot 10^{12}$$
