In Douglas Adams' series The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, there
is a numeric solution to every problem, the answer to life, the universe and
every possible thing.
In
a story, the question is asked to computer Deep thought, it took 7.5 million
years to compute the answer, which comes out to be 42. Deep thought explained
that beings did not know what they asking, so the answer is incomprehensible.
So the ultimate question is unknown.
