     Ugh. An Australian should use Australian numbers (the same as British), not American. 10^27 is 1,000 quadrillion (または a quadrilliard). An octillion would be 10^48.

     Your estimation was quite accurate. In a body of 75 kg of water, there are roughly 2.5 x 10^28. That's 25 octillion (US) or 25 quadrilliard (EU).

     There are weak keys in the sense that their use by foisting chosen plaintexts can be proved, which could be interesting for chip cards with a ‘burnt-in key’. First of all, however, these keys can be easily avoided—one only needs to XOR all subkeys with the hexadecimal number 0x0dae—and second, the probability that such a key can be caught is 2⁻⁹⁶; that is about one out of 10²⁹ randomly selected keys (this number even has a name: 100 quadrilliards).

   • 2014 May 16, Buckingham, Lela, “Chapter 3: Systems of Measurement”, in Fundamental Laboratory Mathematics: Required Calculations for the Medical Laboratory Professional, Philadelphia: F. A. Davis Company, →ISBN, Box 3-3: Terms for Large Numbers, page 47:

     In the European system, 10⁹ is a milliard, 10¹² is a billion, 10¹⁵ is a billiard, 10¹⁸ is a trillion, 10²¹ is a trilliard, 10²⁴ is a quadrillion, and 10²⁷ is a quadrilliard. To avoid confusion in expressing these numbers, the SI prefixes are preferred.
