Why does FAH site talk about total Terra flops, when wiki
Distributed computing records
Distributed computing uses the Internet to link personal computers to achieve more FLOPS:
As of October 2016, the Folding@home network has over 100 petaFLOPS of total computing power.[33][34] It was the first computing project of any kind to cross the 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 native petaFLOPS milestones. This level of performance is primarily enabled by the cumulative effort of a vast array of powerful GPU and CPU units.[35]
Talks petaFLOPS?
Flops?

Re: Flops?
101,000 teraflops from https://folding.stanford.edu/ matches 101 petaflops in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folding@home
Re: Flops?
If tera is 10 to the 12th & peta is 10 to the 15th, how does 101 tera = 101 peta?

Re: Flops?
The , sign is just to help reading the zeros, it is 101000 tera = 101 peta
