Now that the snake's stomach was sick, it couldn't strike at Davy, so Davy picked up the snake and flung it to the moon. This is what I understand about our number system. There are ten digits in our system. The zero holds a place when there is no value in it, such as 1, 011. The zero holds the empty place of the hundreds.
Digit values change depending on where it is placed.
For example, the 6 in 1,006 has a value of six ones, where the 6 in 1,600 has a value of six hundreds. There are infinite places and number periods. A number period is a group of three related places. For example, the thousands period consists of the thousands place, the ten thousands place, and the hundred thousands place. A comma separates each period.
