A constant compiled into a computer program or used in a file format for the purpose of being identifiably unique. A number which could only exist in memory on purpose and rarely by accident. For example, 0 is a bad choice for a magic number, since it's the default value for memory when a computer is turned on.
Programmers use them to quickly validate a larger data structure which could crash if it guesses the type wrong, using the theory that whatever code put the magic number there probably got the rest of it right, since they would have made it store the magic number AFTER everything else checked out.
Usually it's something easy for a programmer to remember, like DEADBEEF or B00B135 or something equally assinine.
It's like a secret signal or whistle you might use with friends when trying to coordinate something sneaky.

I fed an mp3 I accidentally renamed to a avi into windows media player, but it didn't crash because it checked the magic number first.

In sports, the opposite of the "magic number". The amount of games the team in 2nd place in a division needs to lose to lose the division.
Sportscenter: "The Yankees win tonight gives them a magic number of 7."
Red Sox fan: "Damn, now our tragic number is down to 7."

A euphemism for fake breasts used during conversations in which the subject or subject's friends may be able to hear what is being said.
Derived from mathematics where complex numbers are those that are not real (like the breasts.)

Number 45 refers to the 45th President of the United States of America and who shall remain nameless for the the purposes of this definition. He is an ugly, corrupt, racist bastard who belongs in prison.
Journalist 1: Oh Christ, I'm not going to have a good day today.
Journalist 2: Why?

Journalist 2: Whoa, that's some heavy shit right there. Good luck, dude.
