git mv *.hint -> README.md
There is one exception:
$ find . -name '*.hint' -execdir git mv '{}' README.md \;
git statufatal: destination exists, source=1992/albert/albert.hint, destination=1992/albert/README.md
Looking at the two files they differ quite a bit so I've not changed it.
I'll bring this up on GitHub.

Judges' comments:
|
||||
|
||||
The program's source implements four functions, all from the
|
||||
same source file!
|
||||
|
||||
Usage:
|
||||
|
||||
theorem expression x1 x2 h y1
|
||||
|
||||
where:
|
||||
expression - function f(x,y) (see below)
|
||||
x1 - start of interval
|
||||
x2 - end of interval
|
||||
h - step size
|
||||
y1 - initial value (y(x1) == y1)
|
||||
|
||||
When you compile theorem.c as is and run with 5 args, it numerically
|
||||
solves the equation y'=f(x,y), with a step size of h, over the interval
|
||||
x=[x1,x2], with the initial condition of y(x1)=y1.
|
||||
|
||||
The 'expression' f(x,y), is any function of 'x' and 'y' with the
|
||||
operators:
|
||||
|
||||
+ - * / ^
|
||||
|
||||
The symbol '^' is the power operator. Note that it only supports
|
||||
integer powers. Also note that all expressions are evaluated strictly
|
||||
left to right. (i.e., parenthesis aren't supported).
|
||||
|
||||
Try running the program with the following args:
|
||||
|
||||
theorem y 0 1 0.1 1
|
||||
theorem 1/x 1 2 0.1 0
|
||||
theorem 'x^2/y+x' 0 1 0.1 6
|
||||
|
||||
But wait, there is more! You also get, free of charge, a
|
||||
reversing filter! Try:
|
||||
|
||||
theorem -r 0 0 0 0 < theorem.c > sorter.c
|
||||
|
||||
Still not impressed? The author throws in for free, a
|
||||
sort program! Try:
|
||||
|
||||
cc sorter.c -o sorter
|
||||
ls | sorter
|
||||
|
||||
This program is safe for home use as well. The author has
|
||||
included a safety feature in case you misplace the original
|
||||
program source:
|
||||
|
||||
sorter -r 0 0 0 0 < sorter.c > theorem_bkp.c
|
||||
|
||||
And finally, as a special offer to users of this entry,
|
||||
the author provides a Fibonacci sequence generator! Try:
|
||||
|
||||
sorter 0 0 0 0 < theorem.c > fibonacci.c
|
||||
cc fibonacci.c -o fibonacci
|
||||
fibonacci 1 1
|
||||
fibonacci 2 1
|
||||
|
||||
Program available 9 track and cartridge cassette. Gensu knife
|
||||
not included! :-)
|
||||
|
||||
When this program was first shown at the 1990 Summer Usenix
|
||||
conference, it received a standing ovation; a first for
|
||||
a contest entry.
|
||||
|
||||
It should be noted that the 4 trailing args '0 0 0 0', are
|
||||
required on systems that dump core when NULL is dereferenced.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Selected notes from the author:
|
||||
|
||||
Differential equations are solved via the Runge-Kutta method,
|
||||
which guarantees local error proportional to h^5, and total
|
||||
error across a finite interval is at most a constant times h^4.
|
||||
|
||||
Sorting is accomplished with a standard shell sort.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the sorting and reversing is limited to files with
|
||||
fewer than 500 lines, each less than 99 characters long.
