Googology Wiki:André Joyce archive/Ghiggol

Ghiggol is a number in the googol family, coined by substituting -i- from the vowel sound of six and the upgrading -g- infix, g(2, 50, g(1, 6, 50)) = g(2, 50, 300) = \(300^{50}\). It was formerly known as simply, without the silent H, until the name conflicted with the much larger number of Jonathan Bowers. The -h- infix came to be known as standing for "formerly high". It has only 124 digits and its decimal representation is: 7178979876918525887702490000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
