Title from front cover: From OG . to GOOGOL * If you can't wait to find out what a Googol is, turn to next page by Marchant Calculating Machine Company. A googol is the large number 10100. In decimal notation, it is written as the digit 1 followed by one hundred zeroes. The name googol and googolplex were originally coined by Milton Sirotta, nephew of Edward Kasner a famous American mathematician. During a name brainstorming session, the founders of Google, not realizing googol was spelled with an ol at the end, searched the Internet to see if the domain of google was available. The rest is history. Stapled wraps, text in black, illustrations and headings in a reddish-brown. 16 pp including covers. A brief introduction to calculating methods used over the years and to Marchant calculators.
