Bigint Data Type The Bigint data type represents an integer value. It can be stored in 8 bytes. Formula 2^(n-1) is the formula of the maximum value of a Bigint data type. In the preceding formula N is the size of the data type.

A dramatic proof of sea-floor spreading was discovered in the mid 1960s when data revealed alternating stripes of magnetic orientation on the sea floor, parallel to the mid-ocean ridges and symmetric across them -- that is, a thick or thin stripe on one side of the ridge is always matched by a similar stripe at a similar distance on the other side.
