I’m currently reading “The Number of the Beast” by Robert Heinlein. Book is from the 1980s, and there’s a completely doubled up paragraph in the book! It spans two pages but the image shows enough I think.

I had a Book about Java with a code demonstrating to get prime numbers.

The code just outputted odd numbers.
