what your trying to do is to have the largest number and it will start at one.
things to keep in mind:
1. you can not go for example 1 to 1000 in one move. but you can go up by ten.
2.once another zero is added you can add higher numbers such as 10 can go to 100 in one move and 100 can go to 1000 in one move
3.once the number get big enough scientific notation can be used
4.you can go back down
ill start: one
