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:
|

|
||||
To make:
|
||||
make leo
|
||||
|
||||
To have the computer guess:
|
||||
leo [colors]
|
||||
|
||||
To guess the computer's number:
|
||||
mind [colors]
|
||||
|
||||
where:
|
||||
colors number of possible colors (1 to 15) (default: 6)
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the number of colors if 6. You may specify a
|
||||
value of between 1 and 15 colors. See the author's notes
|
||||
for instructions of how to play.
|
||||
|
||||
We look forward to more entries from the newer members of the
|
||||
International Internet community.
|
||||
|
||||
On some systems, you may need to remove the line:
|
||||
|
||||
#include <malloc.h>
|
||||
|
||||
or replace that line with:
|
||||
|
||||
#include <sys/types.h>
|
||||
#include <sys/malloc.h>
|
||||
|
||||
to successfully build this entry.

Selected notes from the author:
|
||||
|
||||
This program plays mastermind, if you call it by a name ending by
|
||||
'd', otherwise it _solves_ mastermind. Call it without parameters
|
||||
to use 6 digits (colors), or indicate the number of possible digits
|
||||
(you cannot change the number of positions so easily).
|
||||
|
||||
The number in parentheses is the number of possible combinations,
|
||||
based on previous questions and answers. If you solve the puzzle,
|
||||
"(1)" indicates that your previous moves are enough to give correct
|
||||
answer. If the program acts as solver and terminates prematurely,
|
||||
it means that you have mistaken in your answers to its guesses.
|
||||
Question marks indicate the number of digits you have to enter
|
||||
(either 4 when you guess or 2 when computer guesses).
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the program uses the same code for both player and
|
||||
solver, and the only place where it makes difference is the
|
||||
interactive part. Many obfuscations have been made to achieve
|
||||
this. An expression giving (bulls * 16 + cows) from two numbers
|
||||
is, however, quite straightforward :-) , as well as the arithmetic
|
||||
of binary coded colors-base numbers is.
|
||||
|
||||
Limitations: maximum number of digits (colors) is 14 (1..F).
|
||||
|
||||
Suggestions: Use terminal (or emulator) with non-destructive
|
||||
backspaces. Do "disable scrolling" on cmdtool or similar emulators.
|
||||
|
||||
Bugs: Please don't type ^D at the prompt!!

EXAMPLE: Suppose we think of 1234:
|
||||
|
||||
judges-385> leo
|
||||
(1296): 6433
|
||||
?? 12 # one 3 is a bull, another is a cow, and 4 is a cow
|
||||
(160): 5363
|
||||
?? 02 # both 3's are cows
|
||||
(21): 4231
|
||||
?? 22 # 2 and 3 are bulls, 4 and 1 are cows
|
||||
(2): 4132
|
||||
?? 13 # 3 is a bull; 1, 2 and 4 are cows
|
||||
(1): 1234
|
||||
?? 40 # you may enter everything there
|
||||
|
||||
EXAMPLE: Guess the computer's number:
|
||||
|
||||
judges-387> mind
|
||||
(1296): ???? 1122 # my strategy isn't the best, just as example
|
||||
00
|
||||
(256): ???? 3344
|
||||
20
|
||||
(18): ???? 5566
|
||||
02
|
||||
(6): ???? 3654
|
||||
11
|
||||
(2): ???? 3355
|
||||
00
|
||||
(1): ???? 6444
|
||||
40 # we have guessed the number
