cse-icons 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2005 hi friends,Have a look at the following code... Can u guess what this wud do...nope... no virus nor executable code... It is a completely valid and compilable C program...dont worry.. I have executed it on my system and it perfectly nice program #include <stdio.h>main(t,_,a)char *a;{return!0<t?t<3?main(-79,-13,a+main(-87,1-_,main(-86, 0, a+1 )+a)):1,t<_?main(t+1, _, a ):3,main ( -94, -27+t, a)&&t == 2 ?_<13 ?main ( 2, _+1, "%s %d %d\n" ):9:16:t<0?t<-72?main(_,t,"@n'+,#'/*{}w+/w#cdnr/+,{}r/*de}+,/*{*+,/w{%+,/w#q#n+,/#{l,+,/n{n+\,/+#n+,/#;#q#n+,/+k#;*+,/'r :'d*'3,}{w+K w'K:'+}e#';dq#'l q#'+d'K#!/\+k#;q#'r}eKK#}w'r}eKK{nl]'/#;#q#n'){)#}w'){){nl]'/+#n';d}rw' i;# ){n\l]!/n{n#'; r{#w'r nc{nl]'/#{l,+'K {rw' iK{;[{nl]'/w#q#\n'wk nw' iwk{KK{nl]!/w{%'l##w#' i; :{nl]'/*{q#'ld;r'}{nlwb!/*de}'c \;;{nl'-{}rw]'/+,}##'*}#nc,',#nw]'/+kd'+e}+;\#'rdq#w! nr'/ ') }+}{rl#'{n' ')# }'+}##(!!/"):t<-50?_==*a ?putchar(a[31]):main(-65,_,a+1):main((*a == '/')+t,_,a\+1 ):0<t?main ( 2, 2 , "%s"):*a=='/'||main(0,main(-61,*a, "!ek;dc \i@bK'(q)-[w]*%n+r3#l,{}:\nuwloca-O;m .vpbks,fxntdCeghiry"),a+1);} ok... so u give up....put it in ur compiler and execute it...surprised...... yup there is a contest held every year, as to who can come up with craziest looking programs and the design and beauty of the program is taken into consideration to decide the winner....I had a collection of such programs somewhere on my system.. will post them when I find them...Cheers.

It narrows down to the most repeating group sequence and places a numeric value to repeat in a certain order. And then follow the same procedure with the next most repeating group sequence. I have never seen someone actually write that in C, however. Exciting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cse-icons 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2005 hey, I did not know that bit about zip software, though I know a few compression algorithms and the most basic one being huffman coding...btw I was going through the official website of the contest and found new program submissions which were amazing.. could not believe what people cound pack in a C program with less than 4K characters(that is the limit of program for submission)..   2) The size of your program source must be <= 4096 bytes in length.   The number of characters excluding whitespace (tab, space,   newline, formfeed, return), and excluding any ; { or } immediately   followed by whitespace or end of file, must be <= 2048. A few of the entries created graphics not easily made even in photoshop.... maybe comparing a bit too far.. but u need to see it to believe it...Also I suppose the contest is currently open, anyone interested...???Their website as nagu gave is: http://www.ioccc.org/Cheers.

BuffaloHelp 24 Report post Posted May 19, 2005 (edited) hey, I did not know that bit about zip software, though I know a few compression algorithms and the most basic one being huffman coding... 142193[/snapback] Zip software is amazing riddles of numbering and sequencing. Now, I am not perfectly clear either but as I understand it, this is how the zip software works (and much like the code for 12 days of Christmas). Let?s take the following lyrics only: On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me a partridge in a pear tree. On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree. I have color coordinated them to show you the ?group sequence? as I have explained in my post (read it here). As you can see, it becomes bit more clear what group sequence means. So then I would assign day of Christmas my true love gave to me (3, 7) because it appears at the 3rd and 7th position a partridge in a pear tree. (4, 12) on the (1, 5) first (2) second (6)two (8) turtle (9) doves (10) and (11)And the group of 12 is now a list group of 9. Well you get the idea. Imagine if the software can figure out how many time the letter ?a? repeats and sees the pattern, I?m sure this will cut down even more. So in a nut shell, this is how your zip software works?but faster and with better sequencing to reduce the size.
