Comments

Jasper Mulder, Jan 25 2010, comments that this sequence is ill-defined, since there are an infinite number of cardinal numbers that start with a 'd', namely all those powers of 10 named decillion, duodecillion and so on (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_numerals).

However, it would seem then that 'billion' and 'centillion' also precede these, while it is standard (and systematic for this sequence) to refer to such numbers as 'one billion', 'one decillion', etc. - Yasiru Ratnayake, May 03 2012

Examples

			The list begins "eight", "eight billion", "eight billion eight", ... [corrected by _Paul Duckett_, Nov 26 2023]
