This file is from my copy from the preview period of 2018 but that somehow was missing. I had added this to /2018/README.md but this was not carried over to the archive tarball.
archive IOCCC winning source
These zip2 compressed tarballs were preserved as an archive of the winning source code that was available on the official IOCCC web site as of 2020 Dec 28. These zip2 compressed tarballs represent the "released" IOCCC winning source, as modified by the IOCCC judges and winning authors as of 2020 Dec 28.
You might wish to note that the archive/historic/archive-all.tar.bz2 file found in this archive produces a somewhat newer version of the released IOCCC source for 1984, 1985, 1986 and 1987 in that the winners for those years were still found in single year directories. Thus the archive/historic/archive-1984.tar.bz2, archive/historic/archive-1985.tar.bz2, archive/historic/archive-1986.tar.bz2, archive/historic/archive-1987.tar.bz2, zip2 compressed tarballs represent a somewhat earlier form of the "released" IOCCC winning source for those years. This a somewhat earlier set of IOCCC winning source may be found in the archive/archive-YYYY.tar.bz2 files.
In addition the archive/archive-all.tar.bz2 file has
a slightly newer version of the 2011 rules and guidelines.
as well as a newer version of 2012/tromp hint files.
For your convenience we keep an archive of the zip2 compressed tarballs as found in the Internet Archive Wayback Machine as of [2022 Dec 28)(https://web.archive.org/web/20201228005211/https://www.ioccc.org/).
