if your a student they offer it at like 20% cost. my dad used my student status to get his copy for cheep. or you can make friends with some one that is a grad student math major at a big university, and sweet talk him into giving you a key, they usually have shit loads.

There is already a formula for everything, also including Life and The Universe.

the problem isn't the 42. You need to solve f(x)=42 for f, not for x

Isn't the function simply defined as “F of x equals 42 for all x” without any more fuss?

that would be too hard, why not "F(x)=42" hehe, constant function

If that simple thing was it, we already would have found the question a LONG time ago lol

but i agree that 42 cannot be the result and the formula ... it must be something more trickier, perhaps "f(x)=0*x+2*21" ? or perhaps even "f(x)=420/10+0*x"

The question I suppose is whatever x you put into the formula.

I guess, the whole thing leads to a complex not-normalized equation. you can always divide both sides by 42 and then subtract 1 to get to a normalized form which = 0
