The commit a1c86c8a7a modified
the navigation bars to include "Original C", so all tarballs
had be update, sorry (tm Canada 🇨🇦). In particular:
The navigation bar for a winning entry now has a "_Original C_" link
(between the ✅ and the Inventory on the right hand side) so that one
may easily view the original C code that was submitted for IOCCC judging.
In addition, a number of other commits since that time
modified other winning entries.
Ran `make update` to perform the above.
To build:
make all
To use:
./marangon
Judges' remarks:
The object is to refill the table with 5s, by incrementing or decrementing
numbers as needed. It is the side effects that get you into trouble. If you
are not careful, you may find things "at 6s and 7s". :-)
NOTE: Some compilers have had trouble optimizing this entry.
NOTE: Some systems need to compile with -ltermcap as well as -lcurses.
NOTE: The original winning source
marangon.orig.c assumed that
exit(3) returns a value which cause problems for some systems where exit(3)
returns a void. The file marangon.c
avoids this problem.
Author's remarks:
It starts off by creating a table with the number 5 in all places. The CPU melts
the numbers and you must return them to the original state. When you increase a
number, all the other eight numbers next to it decrease and vice-versa.
