Yes, I did - but don't ask me what that is in decimal - I'd have to go searching for Icy's Nim entry first. smiley - shhh

Found it: A20725760

42 in decimal is written as 101010 in binary: one 32 (25), plus zero 16s (24), plus one 8 (23), plus zero 4s (22), plus one 2, plus zero 1s: 32 + 0 + 8 + 0 + 2 + 0 = 42.

So if I don't err, today would make 58 in decimal. smiley - silly
