  This is a reference to a short story? Or was it a New Yorker cartoon?

    Or "The Prisoner" TV series.

  Should the number be a collection of binary digits, decimal...

    I admire how tudorw has largely avoided this problem by nabbing "1". :)

    No, a number. Not a string that consists of digits. Numbers can have more than one representation. The real question is: Do we stick to integers? Otherwise I want a supernatural number (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernatural_numbers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernatural_numbers) or at least something like i (where i^2=-1), or perhaps a normal number (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_number http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_number).
