<p>In programming, there are as many ways to destroy something as to create something. One stray character is all that&rsquo;s required. Say you forget a semicolon or use an accented &ldquo;&eacute;&rdquo; somewhere, but the code is not prepared for such a peculiarity&mdash;KABOOM! Or you add two things together, but one is the numeral 4 and the other is &ldquo;4&rdquo; as a string, as you might use to say &ldquo;4 and 20 blackbirds baked in a pie.&rdquo; To the computer, that &ldquo;4 and 20&rdquo; has no numeric significance.</p>

<p>This sort of thing really happens, and part of the job is remembering that 4 + 20 is 24 and 4 + &ldquo;20&rdquo; is &ldquo;420&rdquo;.<span class="footwrapper" style="position: relative;"><a class="footref correx notabene"></a><span class="fn-popup" style="opacity: 0; display: none;">

The concatenation operation should have produced "420", with no period inside the quotation marks. <em><a href="https://github.com/BloombergMedia/whatiscode/issues/76" target="_blank">Thanks to @castaway on GitHub</a></em>
