"Since SQLite is used extensively in every smartphone, and there are
more than 4.0 billion (4.0e9) smartphones in active use, each holding
hundreds of SQLite database files, it is seems likely that there are
over one trillion (1e12) SQLite databases in active use."
(Also the current number for estimated smartphones in use is rapidly
approaching 7 billion now.)
"[...]But our best guess is that SQLite is the second mostly widely
deployed software library, after libz."
SQLite really is just an amazing and magical thing.
