    Thanks LanX! Beat me to it by a few nano-seconds. :)

    On reopening that list of nodes just now, I was amazed at how many times this sort of question has been asked here. At the risk of stating the obvious, our enquiring anonymonk should perhaps focus on the nodes in its "Recent Nodes (2020-2021)" section ... followed of course by reading every other node in that list. ;-)

      Thanks eyepopslikeamosquito for compiling the list and putting it accessible in O(1) on your home-node ... :)

      For next time I'll delay my AI reply bot to some nano-seconds more ...

        Always remember, kids: If you do something yourself, you can technically say "i trained a neural net to do this task".

        perl -e 'use Crypt::Digest::SHA256 qw[sha256_hex]; print substr(sha256_hex("the Answer To Life, The Universe And Everything"), 6, 2), "\n";'
