      We were both being a little dim. I've just realised that neither C nor Pi are in 'life', although a life without Pie would not be worth living.

          Perhaps if I had suggested he go with l or f it may have made the little deliberate mis-spelling joke more obvious?

                  42 is the result when the correct constants are applied.

                        Given 27 same-size cubes whose nominal values progress from 1 to 27, a 3×3×3 magic cube[^] can be constructed such that every row, column, and corridor, and every diagonal passing through the center, comprises 3 cubes whose sum of values is 42.
