1. What is the largest number in the world so far?

Mathematically speaking, there is no maximum number, but so far any number in the universe is more than gogul, which is equivalent to 100 to the power of 100. But the largest number used in formal mathematical proof is the Gregorian calendar number, and its last 12 bit is 262464 195387.

2. The "Millennium Math Problem" will be awarded $654,380,000 per question.

On May 24th, 2000, the Clay Institute of Mathematics in the United States announced in Paris that seven "Millennium Mathematical Puzzles" would each receive a prize of1000000 dollars after joint selection by several mathematicians. Since the publication of the "Millennium Prize Problem", it has had a strong response in the field of mathematics, and studying and cracking the "Millennium Prize Problem" has become a hot spot in the field of mathematics.

3. Which four mathematicians are known as "Shakespeare" in mathematics?

These four mathematicians are Euler, Archimedes, Newton and Gauss.

4. It is controversial whether "Columbus Egg" was invented by China or Indians.

As early as in ancient Babylonian cuneiform, there was a record of zero, but they did not regard zero as a number; Indians' greatest contribution to zero is to admit that it is a number, not just a vacancy or nothing; Brahmagupta described the operation of zero completely: "negative negative zero is negative, positive and negative zero is positive, and zero negative zero has nothing;" : zero times a negative number, and a positive number or zero is zero. ..... zero divided by zero is nothing, and a positive or negative number divided by zero is a fraction with zero as the denominator. "

At first we used a space to represent zero, and later we used a zero. However, it is still controversial whether the number 0 was invented by China or introduced into China through India.

Mathematicians invented four kinds of arithmetic symbols with different destinations.

Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division+,-,× (? ), ? and other four mathematical operation symbols are the most familiar symbols for each of us. It was not until the middle of17th century that all these symbols were widely accepted. 1544, German mathematician Steefel officially used "+"and "-"to represent addition and subtraction in integer arithmetic, and these two symbols were gradually recognized as real arithmetic symbols.

Oughtred, a British mathematician, formally founded the number X in Key to Mathematics published in 163 1. Only later Leibniz thought that "X" was easily confused with "X" and suggested using "?" Represents a multiplication symbol; Finally, the division symbol ? was first used in Varis, England, and was first widely popularized in Britain.
