Graham's Number.
Sirrus:
Yeah, but what use is that? Like WhatevaGuy said, and this is true, Graham's number is the upper bound in a complex mathematical problem. You just made a grotesquely large number.

Well, I'm off to count all of the atoms in our universe.
See you in eternity, guys.

∞/0^0=1
EDIT:stuff I just got a letter from Dr Math about this question.
--- Quote from: Dr Math ---Hi,
Thanks for writing to Dr. Math.
There's not much of a controversy. Division by zero is not defined.
Period.
So, it's not even correct to say that 1/0 = undefined.
"Undefined" is not some special math term. It's the English word
literally meaning something that has no definition.
So, we have no definition for the result of a division by zero. That's
it.
Further, infinity is NOT a number. So, it cannot be the case that the
result of any arithmetic operation is infinity. It's rather like 1+1
= happy. Happy is not a number, so this statement makes no sense.
So, (1/0)^0 has no defined value, because 1/0 has no defined value.
