Names are on threes... On 3, 6, 9 (thousand, million, billion).Each ,000,. The name "billion" and "trillion" mean different things in differentcountries. This is the us version. There are a few more names after ~ "trillion", however they are practically never used.Links

Some people count through `talking" the numbers, others by `seeing" them.(Source: Feynman"s story (in "Curious Character"?)). You can try itand see. Counting "1, 2, 3, ...", are you speak "one, two,three", or room you picturing "1", "2", "3"? ns say them, butsometimes practice picturing. Feynman reports the if you speak them,you deserve to read at the very same time, but may have actually trouble talking. If youpicture them, you deserve to talk, but reading is difficult. Probably Ishould destruction up the Feynman story and flesh this out as a page? Itwould additionally be pretty to have a crosscheck on the concept.Notes:Doables:History: 2003-Feb-03 fixed 2 links.
