This is a very large commit not only because I forgot to run make www after updating the menus but I also forgot to do that after the update to some of the award titles (only quick-readme2index.sh was used). There is a typo fix in bin/README.md. This commit does mean that md2html.cfg has to be added to bin/README.md but that can be done later. The steps run to verify this works okay: make www git status git diff git add -u make update git status git restore $(git check) The last is important as it is not time for make update. 'git check' is an alias: git diff --name-only
To build:
make all
To use:
./august
Try:
./try.sh
If you have the primes(6) tool (sometimes part of
(BSD Games) you can see
what of the output in the first N (say 15 or 25) lines are primes:
./primes.sh # 15
./primes.sh 25
Note that try.sh will run this script anyway, telling you where to get
primes(6) if you don't have it installed, but it will only run with the
default value of 15, rather than trying several different values.
Judges' remarks:
An interesting use of a recursive call to main(). Compile and execute
without args. What is the initial value of b? Does it alter the
action of the program?
If you let it, the program will continue to print a numerical sequence (can you guess in what base it is printed by looking at the code?) until you run out of memory or until they sell your computer, whichever comes first.
If you use the primes.sh script can you figure out if there's anything funny going on with the output?
