If somebody actually needs numbers larger than "trillion" and doesn't already know
it, in the US it is:
million
billion
trillion
quadrillion
quintillion
sextillion
septillion
octillion
nonillion
decillion
zillion, to the best of my knowledge, has no real meaning.
I did not verify that the algorithms involved would actually work for numbers of this scope/scale.
Jeez, that Math Fun (?) book I read in 5th grade sure comes in handy sometimes...
