### To run
[Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson) fixed this for modern
systems (it did not work at all). He also made it so that if a file fails to
open it does not return but rather skips the reading of the file.
What was
wrong? The call to `freopen()` was incorrect with the second arg (the mode)
being instead `5+__FILE__`. It now is `"r"`. There was also a call to `fopen()`
that was wrong where the mode was instead `44+__FILE__`. Interestingly enough
though this did not seem to be an issue though I cannot explain why. He notes
that it works fine with `clang` as well as `gcc` (which is what is used but in
macOS - see below for alternative code - `gcc` is clang).
Additionally Cody provided an alternative version for macOS. See below for the
alternative version. Thank you Cody for your assistance!
### Alternative code:
As noted above [Cody Boone Ferguson](/winners.html#Cody_Boone_Ferguson) made an
alternative version that works with macOS but there are some important notes as
well as a description of how it works (spoilers for the original version as
well).
Cody said that at least with his MacBook Pro Max with the M1 chip some header
files report an unsupported architecture and unsupported compiler (error,
warning). However the defines are still found okay.
For this alternative version you will need the command line tools which you can
install like:
```sh
sudo xcode-select --install
```
Finally as far as how this works if you look at line 55 you see a funny command.
This goes for both versions. Now the key are two magic numbers, one on a
different line shortly below the string. In the original the numbers are,
respectively, 44 and 46. But how does this work? Well the string is:
"0gcc -ansi -E -dM -undef %s /usr/include/%s>r\0 ("
The first number means: the length starting from 0 up through the `>`. The
second number is the same starting point but up through the `\0` which is why
it's +2. Somehow it was basic intuition that made me figure out these two
numbers and a quick test confirmed it. But what happens if only the first number
is updated? Most of the output will be just `#define` by itself; in the cases
where there was text after that it was macros that certainly were not defined.
There might have been other errors as well.
This allows for opening the right files. The problem with the macOS is
`/usr/include` does not exist: instead it's
`/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include` which is why
the different command line and the different numbers.
To use this version use `schweikh1.alt` instead.

## Judges' comments
## Judges' comments:
What does it do? It seems to print a list of system headers, perhaps
with words after them. Curiously, if you look at the list of words
defined in a given standard header, they are never printed directly
after that header's name. Ah-hah! It's a conformance test for the
standard headers.

This code is a wonder; it's a wonder that it compiles. I wonder
whether or not it should. The innovative realization that you can
use special characters, such as '\n', in #file directives alone
merits some recognition.

I've included most of the author's comments; they're fairly thorough.
Do not read them if you want to figure this out yourself. "Amendment

NOTE: Some non-gcc compilers that are not fully ANSI standard do not
compile this entry correctly. Using cc by default is not helpful
most of the time on this entry, because the program has a hardcoded
gcc invocation anyway. Anyone who uses egcs and has no plain gcc
will need to frob the source anyway and can be expected to do the
right thing with ${CC}. So use gcc.

1. The token sequence after #include can consist of pp-tokens and
"are processed just as in normal text." [ISO 6.8.2] The result
must resemble one of the canonical forms, "foo.h" or <bar.h>.
This lets us write things like
#define HEADER "foo.h"
#include HEADER
I could not find a compiler rejecting this. However, if we're
torturing the preprocessor a little more, by using token pasting,
at least one compiler falls over.
#define H(x) <st##x##.h>
#include H(dio) /* expands to <stdio.h> */
is rejected by tcc version 4.1.2, the TenDRA compiler:
"t.c", line 3: Error:
[ISO 6.8.3.3]: Invalid result for '##' operator in macro 'H'.
To be honest, I don't know if the rules for pp-tokens and token
pasting don't forbid what I do (and tcc is correct in rejecting it).
In this case, all other compilers I tried are buggy, or the Standard
itself :-)

2. The #line directive allows to set a line number, and optionally
a file name, i.e. modify __LINE__ and __FILE__. Strange things
happen if the file name contains a NUL byte -- which the Standard
allows: in #line num "file" the "file" is an s-char-sequence per
ISO 6.8.4. ISO 6.1.4 defines string literals as s-char-sequences,
which may include octal escape sequences. Let's look at
#include <stdio.h>
#line 42 "foo\0bar"
int main (void) {
printf ("%s %d\n", __FILE__, (int)sizeof __FILE__);
return 0;
}
This is supposed to output 'foo 8'. Here's what happens in RL:
foo 4 gcc 2.7.2.1, lcc
foo\0bar 9 tcc 4.1.2, Sunsoft cc turn "\0" into "\\0", ugh!
(I have written a bug report for gcc. Newer versions and egcs are ok.)

Ask your local guru if C allows the same case label in the same switch
statement to appear more than once. Ask him/her to think real hard.
The answer will be "no". The true guru will cite a constraint in
ISO 6.6.4.2. Then make fun of the guru's answer by waving 'case __LINE__:'
under his/her nose. Easy money from a bet! Make sure your guru has
no chance to use Standardese weasel words as an escape: can I have
case <some_token>:
case <some_token>:
in the same switch? (Note that you need the [invisible] newline. You
can generously allow the additional constraint that no #undefs or
#defines are allowed between the two cases.)

Lots of integer constants and string literals come into the source
via __LINE__ and __FILE__ which are redefined at various places.
Sometimes the __FILE__ contains \0 bytes; different strings or
characters are then accessed with offsets, say 10+__FILE__ or
__LINE__+__FILE__ or 2[__FILE__]. One integral constant in octal.
This makes the source and header input depend on ASCII.

A few old obfuscations, like one character identifiers, not too
many macros, a goto O, "needless" assignments to satisfy lint
with its "function value ignored" warnings. My lint has nothing

There's more whitespace in the Standard than just space, tab and
newline. In particular, there are vertical tab and formfeed that
can be used in certain places (outside of preprocessing directives,
i.e. they are not allowed from just after the # up to the final
newline. See 6.8 for details.)
On many implementations these appear as ^L and ^K. My source starts
with an extremely uncommon 32bit word consisting of ^L, ^K, % and :.
I have grepped old winning entries for ^K, none of them contains one,
so this is something new -- after 14 years of IOCCC. Be sure to have
enough paper in your printer when you make a hardcopy of the source...

While I'm at it, the rules state that only space, tab and newline
are ignored for the count (plus '{', '}', ';' followed by
whitespace). The mkentry.c program, however, uses isspace() which
returns nonzero for vtab and formfeed and other characters as well.
I could have used a lot more ^K and ^L probably undetected by your
counter but decided to err on the side of safety. I use a perl
script to compute the character count according to the rules.

I have tried, as suggested in the guidelines, to let the code look
like ordinary C code. Apart from a few long lines I think I left
the indentation like I would in RL. You should however not try to
use indent on the source. The code is extremely fragile because of the
myriads of __LINE__ macros -- indenting is a sure way to break
the program. Don't even think of maintaining that beast; I've
had my share of core dumps during development :-) A test suite
was used after every minor change to find out if the program still
does what it should.
