build index.html for all winners
Updated manifest as per recent file changes. Updated winner `.winner.json` to reflect the manifest changes. Added [bin/all_run.sh](bin/all_run.sh) tool to run a command over all winning entries. These tools had slight improvements in the help usage message: * bin/gen-author.sh VERSION="1.3.1 2024-01-16" * bin/gen-inventory.sh VERSION="1.0.1 2024-01-16" * bin/pandoc_wrapper.sh VERSION="1.3.1 2024-01-16" * bin/subst.default.sh VERSION="1.1.1 2024-01-16" * bin/subst.winner-index.sh VERSION="1.1.1 2024-01-16" The `bin/readme2index.sh` tool was improved so that if the `index.html` file exists and the tool forms the exact same content, then the file `index.html` file is NOT touched. * bin/readme2index.sh VERSION="1.1 2024-01-16" We used the following command to generate `index.html` files for all winning entries: ```sh bin/all_run.sh -v 3 bin/readme2index.sh ``` NOTE: We have not (yet) built HTML files above the winner directory level (e.g., no year level nor top level HTML), nor have be built non-index HTML files for winners. NOTE: By default we are running `pandoc(1)` with: ``` --fail-if-warnings=true ``` This means that any problems with markdown to HTML generates an error. This is done to be sure that the HTML conversion is clean. We had to fix the following `README.md` files: * `2000/rince/README.md` The reference [^2] was never used. We made a guess that [^2] applies to the same spot as [^1]. Perhaps there is a better spot where [^2] applies? NOTE: For every reference, there MUST be some place where that reference is used. * 2012/vik/README.md The string "$...$" is assumed to be a TeX encoded string. NOTE: Every "$..$" needs to be backslashed as in "\$..\$". * 2018/burton1/README.md The reference [2] was duplicated. We changed the second [2] to [3]. NOTE: Every reference needs to have a unique number. * 2020/carlini/README.md The string "$...$" is assumed to be a TeX encoded string. NOTE: Every "$..$" needs to be backslashed as in "\$..\$". We also found 2 errors in the `author/author_handle.json` file set: * author/Anonymous_2001.json The `author/Anonymous_2001.json` file was missing. * author/Jari_Arkko.json The winner ID for `1989_jar.1` had a typo.

<p>When this entry was submitted the rules of the IOCCC did not prohibit
|
||||
the use of embedded language interpreters. The judges considered
|
||||
disqualifying this entry because of the use of perl, but on the other
|
||||
hand it qualifies as the Worst Abuse of the Rules. As a previous winner*
|
||||
David Lowe continues to inflict the highest quality “poot” on the
|
||||
Judges.</p>
|
||||
<p>The program also contains an undocumented command for Chad and Chongo
|

(Landon). The judges’ remarks contain a clue to the hidden command

|

<ul>
|

<h3 id="usage">Usage</h3>
|
||||
<pre><code>./dlowe [file ...]</code></pre>
|
||||
<h3 id="synopsis">Synopsis</h3>
|
||||
<p>This is a <a
|
||||
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_Polish_notation">Reverse
|
||||
Polish calculator</a>, loosely based on the <code>dc(1)</code> unix
|
||||
calculator.</p>
|
||||
<h1 id="syntax">Syntax</h1>
|
||||
<p>This program understands the following <code>dc(1)</code>
|
||||
commands:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code>p prints the top stack value without altering the stack.
|
||||
P prints the top stack value, removing it from the stack, and
|
||||
doesn't print a trailing newline.
|
||||
f prints the contents of the stack, one number per line,
|
||||
without modifying it.
|
||||
c clears the stack.
|
||||
d pushes a copy of the top stack value onto the stack.
|
||||
r reverses the order of the top two stack values.</code></pre>
|
||||
<p>And the following arithmetic operators are supported:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code> + Pops 2 values and pushes their sum.
|
||||
- Pops 2 values and pushes the result of subtracting the first
|
||||
from the second.
|
||||
* Pops 2 values and pushes their product.
|
||||
/ Pops 2 values and pushes the result of dividing the second
|
||||
by the first.
|
||||
^ Pops 2 values and pushes the result of raising the second
|
||||
to the power of the first.
|
||||
% Pops 2 values and pushes the remainder of the division that
|
||||
/ would do.</code></pre>
|
||||
<p>The precision and range are double, like it or not, except that the
|
||||
modulus operator actually returns <code>(p1 - (p2 * (p1 / p2)))</code>,
|
||||
but with the innermost division calculated at integer precision. This is
|
||||
usually what you expect
|
||||
(e.g. <code>echo "12 8 % p" | ./dlowe == 4</code>)</p>
|
||||
<p>Commands are read from <code>stdin</code> or from a list of files
|
||||
named on the command line. Unlike <code>dc(1)</code>, multiple commands
|
||||
on the same line must be space separated. Commands are only executed
|
||||
when a newline or EOF is encountered.</p>
|
||||
<h3 id="diagnostics">Diagnostics:</h3>
|
||||
<pre><code>"stack empty" Not enough on the stack for the requested command
|
||||
"divide by zero" Attempt to divide by zero
|
||||
"unimplemented" Invalid input
|
||||
Floating point exception (core dumped) (or something to that effect)
|
||||
Bug in Perl_sv_upgrade causes this in some cases when
|
||||
the results of an operation are really huge (> 10^308)
|
||||
This bug appears to be fixed in perl5.6.0

<h3 id="code-concept">Code Concept:</h3>
|
||||
<p>We all know that Perl and other VHLLs (very high level languages) are
|
||||
particularly well-suited for (among other things) string handling, I/O,
|
||||
and powerful built-in data types, and (relatively) poorly suited for
|
||||
number crunching and other processor-intensive tasks - areas where C is
|
||||
strongest. This program takes this knowledge to its extreme conclusion,
|
||||
using each language for its strengths. Thus, it uses Perl to read and
|
||||
parse input, for output, and for the easy-to-use list primitive, and
|
||||
uses C for mathematical operations. Since the rules of this contest
|
||||
state that the program must be generated by an ANSI C compiler, of
|
||||
course, the outer Perl layer is wrapped with a thin layer of C.</p>
|
||||
<p>In case that wasn’t clear, in a nutshell: this program is C, calling
|
||||
embedded Perl (contained in a C string), which in turn calls back to C,
|
||||
which performs math on Perl data types and calls Perl functions for
|
||||
error reporting.</p>
|
||||
<h3 id="requirements">Requirements:</h3>
|
||||
<p>Unfortunately, Perl is an evolving beast - that includes the
|
||||
embedding API and the XS API. The code was developed under
|
||||
<code>Perl 5.005_03</code>, successfully tested against
|
||||
<code>Perl 5.6.0</code>, <code>Perl 5.005_02</code> and
|
||||
<code>Perl 5.004_04</code>, and according to the version delta
|
||||
documentation, should work as-is with <code>Perl 5.002</code> and later
|
||||
(which has been around since February 1996). To clarify - it’s not the
|
||||
Perl code itself that may be non-portable, it’s the C code for embedding
|
||||
Perl and for calling C from Perl.</p>
|
||||
<p>It is also important that Perl be installed cleanly and correctly.
|
||||
You may have problems linking if, for example, you have multiple
|
||||
overlapping versions of Perl installed (which might not be a problem for
|
||||
scripts, but causes problems with embedding the interpreter). More
|
||||
commonly, you may get non-fatal warnings from the linker, caused by
|
||||
slight mis-configurations of Perl on your system.</p>
|
||||
<p>Some compilers also complain that “third argument of
|
||||
<code>main()</code> is deprecated” or something to that effect. But in
|
||||
Perl prior to <code>5.6.0</code>, the header file “proto.h” actually had
|
||||
a prototype for <code>main()</code>, so applications which embed Perl
|
||||
must use the three argument form of <code>main()</code>.</p>
|
||||
<h3 id="aside-history">Aside: history…</h3>
|
||||
<p>Larry Wall wrote the original Perl in 1986-87, the same two
|
||||
successive years he won the IOCCC. I hope this program helps you to
|
||||
realize that this was no fluke - that Perl and Obfuscation are as
|
||||
inseparable as, say, camels and humps.</p>
|
||||
<h3 id="obfuscated">Obfuscated?</h3>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><p>Reverse Polish notation is pretty strange, in and of
|
||||
itself.</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>The layout of the program is three roughly symmetrical “stacks”
|
||||
of code. This layout is quite sensitive in places - my C indenter
|
||||
actually breaks the code by inserting spaces in certain places.</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>Anyone who has ever programmed in Perl can attest to the fact
|
||||
that it is particularly well-suited to obfuscation; thus, the Perl is
|
||||
obfuscated. (Here’s my favorite legal Perl from this program:
|
||||
<code>_:$_=<>;</code> - but <code>$SS[$#SS]-=$SS[$#SS-1]</code>
|
||||
isn’t bad, either).</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>I’ve eschewed traditional branch and loop structures such as
|
||||
<code>if</code> and <code>for</code>, in favor of their oft-neglected
|
||||
cousins, <code>goto</code> and <code>?:</code>, in both the Perl and C
|
||||
code.</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>I’ve used some highly magical Perl incantations, such as symbolic
|
||||
references, the <code>goto &NAME</code> syntax,
|
||||
<code>AUTOLOAD</code> for exception handling, and abuse of the default
|
||||
scalar (<code>$_</code>).</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>I’ve also deliberately used Perl syntax that is very much unlike
|
||||
C syntax: the <code>&NAME</code> rather than <code>NAME()</code>
|
||||
function calling syntax, leaving off parentheses wherever possible,
|
||||
using <code>print()</code> instead of <code>printf()</code>, and using
|
||||
the English style logic operators <code>and</code> and <code>or</code>
|
||||
rather than <code>&&</code> and <code>||</code>, for
|
||||
example.</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>The fact that all the Perl code is in double-quotes doesn’t lend
|
||||
any readability to the regular expressions and quoted strings
|
||||
therein.</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>The points and ways in which C and Perl connect are
|
||||
<em>really</em> obscure. They’re also incredibly poorly documented, as
|
||||
they’re primarily used in machine-generated code. However, there’s a
|
||||
wealth of example code on <a href="https://www.cpan.org">CPAN
|
||||
(www.cpan.org)</a>.</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>The Perl API functions are almost all macros, so you will
|
||||
probably find that preprocessor expansion will only make things worse.
|
||||
They also have helpful, verbose names like <code>SvNV</code>,
|
||||
<code>SvIV</code>, and <code>newSVpv</code>. I couldn’t have done better
|
||||
myself!</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>Figuring out how the mathematical C functions get called is a bit
|
||||
tricky. Note the lack of explicit switching based on command
|
||||
input.</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>Because of the “interesting” way that commands are interpreted,
|
||||
all of the commands have synonyms. For example, if you find it easier to
|
||||
remember, <code>=</code> is synonymous with <code>d</code>. This also
|
||||
makes it possible to write (even more) obfuscated reverse Polish
|
||||
commands (I figure this explanation moves the synonyms from ‘bug’ to
|
||||
‘feature’!)</p></li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>. The first IOCCC entry with an “easter egg”?…</p>
|
||||
<h3 id="aside-on-unobfuscated-perl">Aside: on unobfuscated Perl</h3>
|
||||
<p>My original intent was to write obfuscated C and crystal-clear Perl,
|
||||
to highlight my bending of the rules. Unfortunately, Perl really doesn’t
|
||||
lend itself to crystal-clear code…</p>
|
||||
<h3 id="bending-the-rules">Bending the rules?</h3>
|
||||
<p>Well, the rules never state that you can’t embed another programming
|
||||
language, but on the other hand, knowing Perl probably isn’t high on the
|
||||
list of qualifications for judges… Oh dear, I guess your C beautifier
|
||||
won’t help too much, either ;)</p>
|
||||
<p>If you don’t change the rules, it’ll be embedded Ada next year!</p>
|
||||
<h3 id="auto-defend">Auto defend</h3>
|
||||
<p>A. Isn’t this the obfuscated C contest? What’s this Perl
|
||||
<code>$#_&&$_</code>?</p>
|
||||
<p>D. Hey, this program <em>is</em> 100% C, and does not exec an
|
||||
external Perl interpreter. It simply links against the Perl language
|
||||
library. The “Perl code” is just a C string constant.</p>
|
||||
<p>A. Perl isn’t portable enough, or ubiquitous enough.</p>
|
||||
<p>D. I’d argue that it is more portable than X. According to the Perl
|
||||
folks, it runs on the following platforms: Acorn, AIX, Amiga, AS/400,
|
||||
BeOS, Concurrent, Debian, DEC OSF/1, Digital UNIX, EPOC, FreeBSD,
|
||||
Guardian, HP-UX, IRIX, LinuxPPC, LynxOS, MacOS, MachTen, Minix, MPE/iX,
|
||||
MS-DOS, MVS, NetBSD, Netware, NextStep, OpenBSD, OpenLinux, ODT,
|
||||
OpenVMS, OS/2, OS390, OSR, PowerMAX, Psion, QNX, Redhat, Reliant UNIX,
|
||||
RISCOS, SCO, SGI, SINIX, Slackware, Solaris, Sun, SuSE, Tandem, Tru64,
|
||||
UNIX, U/WIN, Unixware, VMS, Win31, Win32, Windows 3.1, and Windows
|
||||
95/98/NT/2K. Granted, embeddable Perl isn’t quite so portable, but
|
||||
still…</p>
|
||||
<p>Also, Perl 5 is bundled with the following OS distributions: AIX
|
||||
4.3.3+, FreeBSD 3.0+, IRIX 6.4+, every Linux distribution, NetBSD,
|
||||
OpenBSD, and DEC Tru64 5.0+, again according to the Perl people.</p>
