I do not mean to be trite, but the largest number is infinite!  There are many
very deep mathematical ideas that revolve on infinity.  For example, one
infinity can be bigger than another.  I recommend a web search on Godel or
number theory, or perhaps a trip to the local library.

Sincerely,

Tom "Infinitely Dense" Cull
