First annual Obfuscated C Code Contest

In 1984, the first contest was held. The name of the contest was simply "First annual Obfuscated C Code Contest".

View the index.html web page for the given winning entry for information on how to compile it and how to run the winning program. Look at the winning source and try to figure how it does what it does! This year we only had remarks from two authors but these came years later.

Restrictions against machine dependent code were not in the rules in 1984. The source file size restriction was only 512 bytes. Rules and results were posted to net.lang.c and net.unix-wizards. The contest was announced in a net.lang.c post.
