A bit o' the tale or deh tail ?

 

And so, two guys, you know how often the set up is two guys?, sitting around, as you my note is often the case, as one guy says:

" Heh, you want to play a game? "

" Sure, why not ? "

"K, the game is chess, but hasn't been invented yet .. "

"K... "

Guy 1 goes off stage for 15 minutes, while guy 2 fiddles with the controls on a non-existent t.v.

Guy 1 returns,

"K, got the board, .. "

Sets the board down.

" Now, before we play, we begin by solving all the problems in the world ".

" K ".

" You got rice ? "

" Yes, many barrels, and huge surplus "

" Okay now, you must get one grain, and put it on this 8x8 board, and then on the second square place two grains of rice, and then on , the third square, you place 4, and on the fourth square 8, and so on, and so forth. Got it ? "

"Sure, okay, no problem ".

2 ** 64 = 18,446,744,073,709,551,616
