=== {{anchor|Myriad system}} Myriad, Octad, and [[-yllion]] systems ===

 

There is also a [[Donald E. Knuth|Knuth]]-proposed system notation of numbers, named the -yllion system.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Large Numbers (page 2) at MROB|url=http://mrob.com/pub/math/largenum-2.html#yllion|access-date=2020-12-23|website=mrob.com|archive-date=2012-02-13|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120213070143/http://mrob.com/pub/math/largenum-2.html#yllion|url-status=live}}</ref> In this system, a new word is invented for every ''2ⁿ''-th power of ten. <!-- This Anchor tag serves to provide a permanent target for incoming section links.
