The gooboldexithrex is equal to \(a_{a_2}\) in the following sequence:

Let \(a_1\) = {10, 100 (1) 2} = goobol

Let \(a_2\) = {10, {10, {10, … {10, 100 (1) 2} (1) 2} (1) 2} … (1) 2} (\(a_1\) times) = gooboldex

Let \(a_3\) = {10, {10, {10, … {10, 100 (1) 2} (1) 2} (1) 2} … (1) 2} (\(a_2\) times) = gooboldudex

Continue, letting \(a_{n+1}\) = {10, {10, {10, … {10, 100 (1) 2} (1) 2} (1) 2} … (1) 2} (\(a_n\) times)

Gooboldexithrex = \(a_{a_2}\)

The term was coined by HaydenTheGoogologist2009.[1]
