<h2 id="to-build">To build:</h2>
<p>This entry requires SDL2 to be installed. See <a href="../../faq.html#SDL">FAQ 3.8: How do I compile an
IOCCC entry that requires SDL1 or SDL2?</a> if you don’t have it
installed and don’t know how to do so.</p>
<pre><code> make</code></pre>
<h2 id="to-use">To use:</h2>
<pre><code> ./prog</code></pre>
<h2 id="try">Try:</h2>
<pre><code> ./prog ioccc.txt
./prog prog.c
./prog sand.txt
./prog sand.alt.txt</code></pre>
<p>NOTE: these invocations will take quite some time to finish.</p>
<h2 id="judges-remarks">Judges’ remarks:</h2>
<p>Can you explain the behavior of the program when <a href="ioccc.txt">ioccc.txt</a> is given
to it as input?</p>
<p>How would the description of the state machine look like when translated from
Polynomish to English?</p>
<h2 id="authors-remarks">Author’s remarks:</h2>
<h3 id="remarks">Remarks</h3>
<p>This entry graphically displays a simulation of sand falling.
It uses SDL to draw the interface.</p>
<p>The code makes the following assumptions about the underlying system:</p>
<ul>
<li>SDL2 is installed from <a href="https://libsdl.org">https://libsdl.org</a> or your
package manager.</li>
<li><code>double</code> is an IEEE 754 floating-point type and <code>sizeof(double)==8</code>.</li>
<li>The compiler supports the C99 standard.</li>
</ul>
<p>In order to simulate the motion of the sand, a cellular automaton is used. The
state transition table is not stored directly. Instead, the program stores the
coefficients of a polynomial that map each state to the correct one. These
coefficients are stored as raw hexadecimal in the <code>V[]</code> array, and they are
reinterpreted as <code>double</code>s when used. This allows more numeric precision in fewer
characters (base 16 &gt; base 10), and makes the purpose of the array less clear.</p>
<p>The code is laid out graphically as a bucket pouring sand, and it is far easier
to observe this high-level layout than the code’s actual function.</p>
<p>The preprocessor is used to both obfuscate the code as a whole and abbreviate
the calls to SDL. Additionally, throughout the code, the variables were named
so that they are short and easily confused with each other.</p>
