Make the most of these digits (Posted on 2002-06-06) Difficulty: 3 of 5
You can use the digits 1,2,and 3 once only and any mathematical symbols you are aware of, but no symbol is to be used more than once. The challenge is to see if you can make the largest numbers.

Here are some numbers to set the ball rolling: 321, 21to the third power, (3/.1)to the second power.

(levik: I guess this is more of a competition)

(In reply to eazy by bob)

pie (3.14...) is not allowed, since it is a number, not a mathematical symbol meaning some sort of an operation.

if it were allowed, I could just as well have used the symbol representing infinity (a figure 8 turned on the side)
