River's Algorithm

River's Algorithm is an algorithm for naming numbers larger than a googolplex (10^10000). to do this algorithm takes few steps and can be learned by any.

How to use it:

Begin by getting a number larger than 10^10000, example: 10^454,000. We can break the exponent down by the Greek prefixes of its contents. examples: 1 -> un, 2-> bi, 3 -> tri, 4 -> quattro, or quad, 5 -> quint, 6 -> sec, or sect, 7 -> sept, 8 -> oct, 9 -> non, 10 -> dec. With this information, 10^454,000 becomes quadquintquattro. Now you get the prefix Mil, Mil is 3000 in this case. Divide 3 the exponent by 3000, example: 454000/3000 = ~151.333, we can ignore the decimals. Using the Greek prefixes, 151 becomes unquintun. adding Mil to the beginning of our word, and unquintun (and illion) to the end, we can get quadquintquattrounquintunillion. This is River's Algorithm and it is a unknown strategy for naming large numbers.

Things to keep in mind:

Always add Mil to the beginning of your word, and illion to the end. This is important for your word. If your number has "0" in either in the answer of (exponent)/3000, or in the exponent itself, null is not a required prefix in your word. If your exponent starts with 4, use quad rather than quattro, or if it starts with 6, use sec instead of sect. If you get the four or six two times in a row in your number (34,420), (664,320) then have the first of the two numbers be the alternate (sec, quad)

Second example: 10^7,342,462

With the exponent 7,342,462, we can get septtriquattrobiquattrosectbi. Now divide 7,342,462 by 3000. We get 2447.48733, ignore the decimals and we can get biquadquattro. Combine the two prefix mixes and we get septtriquattrobiquattrosecbibiquadquattro.

Conclusion

River's Algorithm is useful in a few ways, if a large number becomes canon in a math algorithm and requires naming, or in naming a number overall.
