The commit a1c86c8a7a modified
the navigation bars to include "Original C", so all tarballs
had be update, sorry (tm Canada 🇨🇦). In particular:
The navigation bar for a winning entry now has a "_Original C_" link
(between the ✅ and the Inventory on the right hand side) so that one
may easily view the original C code that was submitted for IOCCC judging.
In addition, a number of other commits since that time
modified other winning entries.
Ran `make update` to perform the above.
To build:
make
An alternate version of this program exists. See Alternate code below.
To use:
./prog
Try:
./run_clock
# And watch closely for 15-20 seconds
Alternate code:
An alternate version of this entry, prog.alt.c, is provided. This alternate code uses Unicode letters.
Alternate build:
make alt
```
### Alternate use:
Use `prog.alt` as you would `prog` above.
### Alternate try:
``` <!---sh-->
./run_clock.alt
# And watch closely for 15-20 seconds
Judges' remarks:
You may be tempted to use a mirror. Resist the temptation! Try figuring out how the clock hands are drawn. Can you change the program to make it draw a familiar (non-mirrored) clock face? Can you add the second hand?
When using the run_clock.sh shell script, your perception of time might depend on what time it is.
Author's remarks:
Prepare a mirror!
make clock
Note: You need to recompile it each run.
