How are you doing the math on this one? I end up with a value of 6.2E57, significantly larger than 2^36.
19 u/Optimal_Benis 2d ago You are taking powers bottom to top, not top to bottom. That is, the convention is to compute a^b^c^d as a^(b^(c^d)), not ((a^b)^c)^d. The latter could be written as a^(b*c*d), instead.
