Special Problem : Simple

PROBLEM:

You might not have seen this question before. This question has LEAST number of submissions compared to any other question on any online platform. This question is not the answer to anything.

HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS:

This question is inspired from the famous question “Life, Universe and Everything” which has maximum number of submissions on various online coding platforms. The question is written in a sarcastic manner and thus points out all the opposite traits that it has in common with the original problem. The original problem dealt with printing all the integers before number 42 comes. And thus, in the given problem, one was expected to print every character before “*” (ASCII value 42, which also appeared many times in constraints).
