- 2@Vincent: Hm? A function is basically a map between two sets.fredoverflow– fredoverflow2010-11-26 15:51:42 +00:00Commented Nov 26, 2010 at 15:51
- 12@FredOverflow: seems Vincent's comment is kinda joke about certain book...Victor Sorokin– Victor Sorokin2010-11-26 16:09:23 +00:00Commented Nov 26, 2010 at 16:09
- 2It seems to contradict the original -- 42 can't simultaneously be the answer to (a) life, the universe and everything, and (b) nothing. But then how do you express life, the universe and everything as an int?Stuart Golodetz– Stuart Golodetz2010-11-26 16:20:54 +00:00Commented Nov 26, 2010 at 16:20
- 25@sgolodetz You can express everything with an int large enough.Yakov Galka– Yakov Galka2010-11-26 16:49:01 +00:00Commented Nov 26, 2010 at 16:49

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. python-3.x), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
