Changed 'description of entry in JSON' to 'entry summary and manifest in JSON'. Changed 'how to run' (for try scripts) to 'script to try entry'. Changed 'how to run if you have the primes utility' to 'script to try entry if you have the primes utility'. Changed 'how to run alternative code' to 'script to try alternative code'. A number of other more specific (to particular entries or maybe even a single entry, 2019/ciura if not any others) descriptions were also changed. Rebuilt index.html and .entry.json files.
To build:
make
To use:
./dhyang
Try:
./try.sh
Judges' remarks:
A beautiful combination of solving several different problems, but mostly, the single most impressive layout we've ever seen. Many programs have one interesting layout; this one has four.
It may be informative to run the code through a "beautifier", to study it, but the layout itself is where most of the interest lies.
Author's remarks:
This one is dedicated to Saitou Hajime fans ^_^x
Instead of making one self reproducing program, what I made was a program that generates a set of mutually reproducing programs, all of them with cool layout!
For your enjoyment:
- Compile dhyang.c.
- Run
./dhyangand redirect output to another.cfile. - Compile that file.
- Repeat steps 2 and 3 until eventually the output cycles.
To interpret the output: the dhyang.c is an image of Saitou Hajime, which eventually generates three sources files that are images of "aku soku zan" (sin swift slay), Saitou's motto ;)
For best viewing, set tab spaces to 8 characters, and set your terminal fonts to as close to square as possible. I hate to do this but you know, size...
dhyang.c and all its output compiles with gcc if your OS uses ASCII
character set. No file is included and all functions assume default int return
type (a source of compile warnings).
