@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ Imagine we need to write 1 billion. The obvious way is:
let billion = 1000000000; let billion = 1000000000;

But in real life we usually avoid writing a long string of zeroes as it's easy to mistype. Also, we are lazy. We will usually write something like `"1bn"` for a billion or `"7.3bn"` for 7 billion 300 million. The same is true for most large numbers.
