The Meaning of Life (42) and Pi
(Quoting from Scott Glazer): Trying to come up with a significant number to search for, I thought of 42 (the answer to life, the universe, and everything in Hitchhikers's Guide to the Galaxy.) 42 would be way too common of course, so I went for 424242. Came back that this shows up at position 242423. Add one (for the decimal point, I lamely rationalize here) and you get 242424, the reverse of the original input. Now that's meaningful... or something.
[Editors Note] Amusingly enough, the entire string returned is 242424242. If you disregard either of the ending twos, you find that it's the same position at which you find 42424242. Ahh, the palindromic possibilities inherent in a reversible meaning of life string. --Dave
Bon, en fait tu as raison ; là l'auteur n'a cherché que 424242 initialement... et s'étonne que la 2ème occurence soit en position 242423 soit 242424 en prenant en compte le chiffre 3 (cette position étant un palindrome, comme laval).
