A GOOGOL COOKIES!

Except that a Java int is a signed 32bit number (so its range is from -2^31..2^31 - 1, or -2,147,483,648..+2,147,483,647), you really should be using BigInteger (and a wagonload of patience...).

Also, I'd like to nominate this for most pointless thread of the WL forum... :s

69 cookies

Technically, I think that the correct sum is (34.6)^2 but, as usual I forgot to carry the one...

28 cookies?

@ RvW lol it probably take longer then the age of the universe

101st cookies

29 cookies.
And RvW, are you sure you haven't been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like you've already read that tread about impossible English language?
And I also think Skunk's map blog is more useless than this.

Skunk has a blog? On maps? For WL?

@RvW: Actually, you can do better than BigInteger.
Just call method below with 20 as parameter:

public static void cookies(int level) {
if(level == 0) {
System.out.println("cookie");
} else {
for(int i = 0; i < 100000; i++) {
cookies(level-1);
}
}
}
