The Nerdy Sixty | (06/60) Meaning of Life in Vim | Solution

Vim has an Easter egg related to the number 42. Open Vim’s help to find a reference to the “Meaning of Life.”

Hint 1: In Vim, try accessing help for the number 42.

Hint 2: Launch Vim and enter `:help 42`.

 

Solution:

Vim has a hidden reference: `:help 42` (or opening Vim with `vim +help42`) displays an entry that jokes about 42 being “the answer to life, the universe, and everything”—a nod to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
