    "terra ... " as a prefix means 10¹²,

    so the unit speed of this computer is

    136.8 x 10¹² calcs/sec.

    "micro ... " as a prefix means 10⁻⁶,

    so in that amount of time, the computer can do

    (136.8 x 10¹² calc/sec) x (1 x 10⁻⁶ sec) = 136.8 x 10⁶ calcs.

    That's ...

    ... 136.8 mega-calcs

    ... 0.1368 giga-calcs

    ... 136,800 kilo-calcs

    ... 136,800,000 calculations
