  • Noun (googology)

    Loosely, a googolism can be defined as a mathematical number relevant to googology. Like googologism, except limited to numbers.

    From Sbiis Saibian himself: "A googolism is a number name. In other words it's a specific name assigned to specific number. In it's most general sense then, even pi and e are googolisms because they are specific names created to provide a name for these specific irrational constants. When Graham's Number was defined, this was not a googolism, but when Gardner dubbed this number Graham's Number he was coining a googolism."
