Another Amazing Number

Feb 26, 2016



999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,998,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000,000,000,001 is a Sequence Number that generates a counting sequence, with terms written in 33 digit strings.  If you take each of these 33 digit terms and convert them to base 36 it will contain the correct spelling of every word in the English language that is 20 characters long or less.  
It would also contain every way to misspell every word in the English language.  And it would contain every foreign word that can be spelled with the English alphabet.
And it would contain all of the numbers mentioned in yesterday's post.
