Is there any solution without logarithms?

edit that m = [ 1000log2] = 302 - in the second last line.

L e t 2 1000 = x t a k i n g l o g b o t h t h e s i d e s ( 1000 ) log 2 = log x 301.029 = log x b y t h i s w e c a n s a y t h a t x h a s 302 d i g i t s Let\quad \\ { 2 }^{ 1000 }=\quad x\\ taking\quad log\quad both\quad the\quad sides\\ (1000)\log { 2=\log { x } } \\ 301.029=\log { x } \\ by\quad this\quad we\quad can\quad say\quad that\quad x\quad has\quad 302\quad digits

nice answer.. :) :D (y)

log 2^1000 = 1000 log 2 =1000(0.3010)=301=302 digits
