Question

Today at the bookstore, Karen asked Neal: "To be or not to be?"

What is the only correct answer to her question?

NOTES:

Be nice, use the spoiler tags.

If you can't explain it, you just read the answer somewhere.

Neal's response would be, "What the heck is the question in reference to ?" seeing as she didn't give it any context. Then Neal should just find a good book to 'get lost' in

2B, when converted from hexadecimal to decimal is 43. But, hexadecimal is also used for colours. #2B0000 equates to a dark brown colour, so maybe she is asking which version of Hamlet to take out, the black or the brown?

0010 1011 or 1101 0100 = 1111 1111= FF = 255

Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner! FF is the answer (the question was asked in hex so it makes sense for the answer to be in hex too). Give the man a sticker.

"to be or not to be"

=> 2B or not 2B

=> 2B || (2B)'

=> 0010 1011 or 1101 0111 (do a bitwise or on them)

= 1111 1111

= FF

And 4 stars for the lady's puzzle! ;)

To be or not to be:That is the question,

Whether ´tis nobler in the mind to suffer

the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune

or to take arms against a sea of troubles,

and by opposing end them? to die:to sleep;

the answer is, "soixante neuf" (the next line of the soliloquy)
