Life, the Universe and Everything
A Mathematician Just Solved a Deceptively Simple Puzzle That Has Boggled Minds for 64 Years.
Quote:
But this state of affairs should come as no surprise to fans of Douglas Adams' "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" book series, which says that the number 42 is actually the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything.
