   The largest number is of course what you get by taking the maximum   
   64-bit unsigned value (18446744073709551615) which is 2^64 - 1.   
      
   This is a 20-digit number so you just take the first 10 digits and   
   reverse them in order to get the largest possible 64-bit base-10   
   palindrome: 1844674407 7044764481
