I am told that infinity is not a number but a concept, specifically the concept of being able to keep adding one.
So do mathematicians have a number that is just The Largest Possible Number? Are there interesting properties that such a number might have? For example, might there be interesting patterns equivalent to primes which shows up near that number but vanish the closer to zero one gets?
