I hate floating point. if you search Google for 2^1023, you get this result:
2^1023 = 8.98846567 × 10^307 However if you search for 2^1024, you don't get a number at all. Even if you search for 1.999999999999999*2^1023 you get a number, but if you search for 1.9999999999999999*2^1023 you don't get a number at all. googol^3 returns a number; googol^4 doesn't return a number at all. Even sqrt(googol^4) doesn't return a number at all.
