Renamed `ioccc.ico` to `favicon.ico`. Correctly added use of `favicon.ico` to all constructed HTML headers. Fixed the smart quote in HTML elements problem. Moved HTML "DO NOT EDIT" comments down below at the bottom of the HTML phase 1 section. According to to the Nu Html Checker, a charset attribute on a meta element found after the first 1024 bytes. Changed `bin/md2html.sh` VERSION from "1.1.3 2024-03-28" to "1.2 2024-03-30". Improved `bin/gen-status.sh` to adjust the "status_update" value only when the "contest_status" is changed. Performed a `make www` to perform and test the above under macOS.

<h1 id="ninth-international-obfuscated-c-code-contest">Ninth International Obfuscated C Code Contest</h1>
|
||
<p>View the <code>index.html</code> web page for the given winning entry for information on how
|
||
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!
|
||
You may then wish to look at the Author’s remarks for even more details.</p>
|
||
<p>Use <code>make</code> to compile entries. It is possible that on BSD or non-Unix
|
||
systems the Makefile needs to be changed. See the Makefile for details.</p>
|
||
<p>Read over the Makefile for compile/build issues. Your system may require
|
||
certain changes (add or remove a library, add or remove a <code>#define</code> i.e. the
|
||
<code>-D</code> flag). A number of compilers had problems optimizing certain entries.
|
||
Some compilers do optimize, but the resulting program does not work. By default
|
||
we have left off <code>-O</code> from compile lines. You might want to add <code>-O</code> back, or
|
||
add it back for certain entries where performance is important. (This was
|
||
updated to use <code>-O3</code> in 202n though sometimes an entry does not work if the
|
||
compiler optimises the code and in this case it is disabled or explicitly set to
|
||
level 0.)</p>
|
||
<p>This year marked an all time high for number of entries as well as the
|
||
quality of entries. Nearly twice the usual number of entries made it
|
||
to the final judging rounds. Even when we raised the standards for
|
||
winning, we still wound up giving out a few more awards than in previous
|
||
years. The new size rules size probably contributed to the overall
|
||
high quality.</p>
|
||
<p>FYI: By tradition, we do not record the count of the number entries,
|
||
nor do we give our our guess as to the number of entries
|
||
received. For folks who wonder, we can say that we consumed
|
||
about 2000 pages of output (printing between 2 and 4 normal
|
||
pages per side) during the judging process this year.</p>
|
||
<p>The new instructions for submitting entries worked well - we were
|
||
able to write scripts to unpack them and eliminate duplicates.</p>
|
||
<p>As promised last year, we accepted programs that made use of the X
|
||
libraries for the first time. We now consider ANSI C compilers to be
|
||
the “standard” version that the entries were compiled with.</p>
|
||
<p>Name and address information are separated from the actual program
|
||
prior to judging. This eliminates any chance that we would bias our
|
||
judging for/against any person or group. In the end, we are surprised
|
||
as you are to see who has won. Even so, it is worth noting that
|
||
<a href="../authors.html#Brian_Westley">Brian Westley</a> has submitted
|
||
a winning entry for the past 6 years!</p>
|
||
<h2 id="a-few-notes-regarding-future-contests">A few notes regarding future contests:</h2>
|
||
<p>We did not give awards to some traditional contest categories such as
|
||
“Best Layout”. We felt that to do so would deny awards to more
|
||
deserving entries. These categories have not been eliminated. We will
|
||
likely be awarding them in future years.</p>
|
||
<p>We received a few entries whose instructions were rot13’d. While
|
||
nothing was said about this in the rules, we found that it made the
|
||
judging process a little harder, so we may request that this not
|
||
be done this in the future.</p>
|
||
<p>Some thought has been given to a separate obfuscated perl contest.
|
||
Watch comp.lang.perl for details!</p>
|
||
<p>Be sure to wait until the 1993 rules are posted before submitting entries.
|
||
We may fine tune the rules to reflect the some ideas above.</p>
|
||
<p>Please send us comments and suggestions what we have expressed above.
|
||
Also include anything else that you would like to see in future contests.

||

<p>If you use, distribute or publish these entries in some way, please drop
|
||
us a line. We enjoy seeing who, where and how the contest is used.</p>
