Very cool quote from the book:
"One of the facts that never fails to blow my mind is the realization that a piece of software is, after all, just a very cleverly composed number. Thus you can sum Adobe Photoshop to Google Chrome, although the result won’t probably make much sense. That is also why there exist such a thing as an “illegal number” [1]."
