If you started to count today and continued counting day and night, without stopping, for the rest of your life, you would never get to a last number, because there isn’t one.
In the exploration of counting’s limits, we unravel the concept of the last largest number one can count to, delving into the complexities of infinite numbers and the intriguing considerations that influence the duration to reach one billion.
Mathematicians tells us that no matter how large a number you would get to, there would always still be one larger.
This idea is important in science and has a special name, infinity, and its own special symbol, ∞.
