@rosslh yeah you're right, I just saw the sentence Number format: for consistency, all numbers must match the output of [this](https://lingojam.com/NumbersToWords) site. And for my method, it would have been with million of billion of billion of ... though the site stops at one hundred novenonagintanongentillion, something like 3002 zeros.

| Jul 18, 2017 at 18:33 | comment | added | xnor | I'm not sure this adds to existing number-to-english challenges like this or this. Past getting the same basic pattern of digits down, the question seems to be how many prefixes for powers of 1000 one can compress into the remaining bytes. | |

| Jul 18, 2017 at 18:11 | comment | added | Okx | You may, however, omit "and" if you'd like. do we have to omit and or not? Personally, I'd say you wouldn't as it 'sounds more correct'. | |
