The top one is a search for "Failure" and the top result is a biography of George W Bush
The other one is an im feeling lucky search for "French Military Victories" and it says "did you mean French Military Defeats?"

There is a joke amongst computer programmers that Deep Thought may have had some order of operations issues. The following code in the C programming language defines the macros SIX as "1 + 5" and NINE as "8 + 1", and then performs the computation "SIX * NINE". It returns the answer "42", because "SIX * NINE" is expanded by the computer to "1 + 5 * 8 + 1", and the multiplication takes precedence over the additions. This occurs because the macro expansion is textual, not logical — experienced C programmers always surround the content of every macro and each instance of a macro argument with parentheses to avoid problems such as this one.

Or, you could just not use the #define preprocessor for representation. An experienced C/C++ programmer would probably (I do it anyway) use const to make a constant logical value enclosed in parentheses.

Anywho... why would Deep Thought want to get 54 (9 * 6) in the first place? :P

Nah, after all, this is just for entertainment purposes. Besides, it's obvious where you got it from :)
