CF. Mind Boggling!

Our minds boggle as we continue our quest! This week we discuss the Knuth Arrow notation, for describing some really staggeringly large numbers. And yet we are still two weeks from talking about the largest number ever used for any real purpose!

We also discuss an April Fool’s paradox! Last week we said there were three errors on the Math Factor. But there were only two, so this announcement was one of the three errors! But then the announcement was correct! ETC.
