I did this with 12.... it was fun.
RE: 42. - newomaster - 11-29-2013
Obviously... the question is "what is the question"
making 42 the question... or is it the answer...

It's not like a spammed every topic in off-Topic.

No fucking way xD
I'm impressed by those bump skillz sir. And still managing to be on topic, you deserve a reward!

YOU GOT US ON THE OFF TOPIC TRAIN EVIL. 42 IS THE ANSWER OF THE NUMBER OF YEARS HE SHALL BE BANNED FROM POSTING IN OFF TOPIC SECTION
RE: 42. - Nickster258 - 04-27-2014
I could make an algorithm that could process all of this and give an output.... for instance:
43-1
44-2
45-3
46-4
Would give infinite amount of answers <- Which is why math is fun.
However, a different type of question could be in order:
At the turn of the 2nd millennium, how many presidents served / are serving as presidents of the United States?
42!
Something along those lines could be quite challenging to write a simple script.
Being that you chose the number 42 for this topic, I could only help but notice that it may be influenced upon by this movie. This story, based upon the life of Jackie Robinson who's number is 42, didn't score completely well on IMDb but did better than many, many others.
Any question relating to such story will turn up with the answer 42.
This wiki page talks in depth about the number 42. 42, being both divisible by 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42, and being a Størmer Number, has many different special aspects to it that other numbers do not. Let's not forget to mention that 42 is also the atomic number of molybdenum. Another special aspect to 42 is that it is known as "The glyph, or character, corresponding to the number 42 in the ASCII character set, is *, the asterisk, commonly known as the wildcard character."
Many a more information could be put into this specific post, but I opt out, for now.
Ninja Edit: We could take the total number of questions asked in this thread and make another one. "How many questions can be formed to produce the answer "132"?

Indeed you do.
P.S: 7.6/10 seems fairly good to me.

RE: 42. - redstonewarrior - 05-02-2014
I'm fairly sure there's a database of numbers somewhere around here...
Just download the key/value pairs, randomly select some, derive 42 in multiple ways, repeat forever, approach happiness.
