In The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, 42 is the ASCII code for the asterisk symbol, which is often thought to represent “anything or everything“. In this context, 42 can mean “everything” or “the meaning of life”. In programming, an asterisk is often used as a wildcard or “whatever you want it to be” symbol. This means that the answer to life, the universe, and everything is whatever you want it to be, or, 42.
