This was an interesting book to read, although I already knew much of the coding-related things it talked about. (octals and binary numbers in particular) Some of the questions it brought up were good food for thought and, on the whole, I'm glad I read it.

This book taught me a lot of interesting facts, like how forty is the only numbers in the english alphabet that is spelled in alphabetical order. Or how to have a guaranteed win in a certain bet. I loved this book because of the it taught me hard math things in a very fun way. The way Kjartan Poskitt
