I once went to the USA and a guy asked me,




"What is a+B?"




I could answer him.



What was my answer?



HINT:




The title is a clue




Note: The title is appropriate, and B is capitalized on purpose.

              It's the ASCII code for '+' and in the USA that's how they think. 9766 would also be valid.

              I put that in because the statement is a question, and wouldn't have come out in normal speech. I assume he asked you 'What is lower-case A plus upper-case B?', and it is customary to add a question mark to such questions.

                      I put that in because the statement is a question, and wouldn't have come out in normal speech. I assume he asked you 'What is lower-case A plus upper-case B?', and it is customary to add a question mark to such questions.

                    Well tried. But it is wrong. Why did you concatenate them? and also, why did you add 43?

                    It's the ASCII code for '+' and in the USA that's how they think. 9766 would also be valid.

                    You could have also added the value for the question mark(?)
