This joke combines two things that I thought would have never been together in a joke: Shakespeare and logic gates.

I'm imagining the MIT drama society production of Hamlet. "Hey, 2B | !2B is always equal to 1, so this whole paragraph is redundant."

For extra geek credit, think up some scenarios in C where the above wouldn't hold true.

"A well known physicist (I will not give out his name) worked at CERN in Geneva, Swiss.

One day his wife said: "You spend most of your time at work, I want you to take a day off so we can go downtown and do some shopping."

Well, they went downtown, and his wife asked him to wait for about an hour while she went to the hairdresser. He was sitting at a sidewalk café having a cup of coffee, when a car stopped right there with a flat tire. A young, very attractive woman got out to look at it. Of course our physicist offered his help, and he jacked up the car and changed the wheel. After it was fixed, the young woman thanked him and said: "I live close to here, come up to my apartment and wash your hands."

He went with her, and of course one thing led to another. After a couple of hours he realized how late it was. "God, my wife must be waiting for me. Have you got some flour in the kitchen?"

He dusted a little flour on his sleeves and went to meet his wife. He explained exactly what had happened, but she looked him straight in the eyes and said:

"You are a damn liar, I can see you have been over at CERN and work on one of your problems on the blackboard, I can see the chalk dust on your sleeves!"

Which shows that it takes a nuclear physicist and not a psychologist to really understand women. "

(shamelessly ripped off from one of the science forums)

If 2B = 2, 2B | !2B = 3... so can I transfer my geek credit to internet dollars?

Nope, wrong answer.

| is bitwise OR, so the answer is probably some big number that depends on the type of the variable 2B.

I should have used || for logical OR to start with, a classic C bug.

Conundrum, that reminds me of the other top CERN physicist, who's wife came home early from work one day and caught him in a compromising scenario with his secretary.

He looked up and said "It's all right dear, I can explain everything!"
