Computing – UTF-8: 2,147,483,648 (2 31) possible code points (U+0000 - U+7FFFFFFF) in the pre-2003 version of UTF-8 (including five- and six-byte sequences), before the UTF-8 code space was limited to the much smaller set of values encodable in UTF-16.

A million grains of table salt or granulated sugar occupies about 64 mL (2.3 imp fl oz; 2.2 US fl oz), the volume of a cube one hundred grains on a side. One million cubic inches would be the volume of a small room 8 + 1 ⁄ 3 feet long by 8 + 1 ⁄ 3 feet wide by 8 + 1 ⁄ 3 feet high.
For example, there is one order of magnitude between 2 and 20, and two orders of magnitude between 2 and 200. Each division or multiplication by 10 is called an order of magnitude. [ 3 ] This phrasing helps quickly express the difference in scale between 2 and 2,000,000: they differ by 6 orders of magnitude.

In three more days, Day 18, you’ll have more than $1,000 — or $1310.72, to be exact. You might be wondering, at this point, if taking $1 million upfront may have been a better option.
While one might say that "a million is expressed in base ten as a one followed by six zeroes", the series of digits "1070" can be read as "one zero seven zero", or "one oh seven oh". This is particularly true of telephone numbers (for example 867-5309 , which can be said as "eight-six-seven-five-three-oh-nine").
