We added a checkmark all narbar's that has the make effect of clicking on the **Nu HTML check this web page** link at the very bottom. This makes it much more convenient when one needs to quickly check the HTML of a number of web pages. Run `make www` to perform the above.

<p>Make sure that you read the last line backwards! Credit goes to <a href="../../authors.html#Brian_Westley">Merlyn LeRoy (Brian
|
||
Westley)</a> for that. See his 22 August 1992
|
||
<a href="https://groups.google.com/g/rec.puzzles/c/z_xVPMRVBtg/m/lyEYSAeBD4gJ">rec.puzzles
|
||
post</a>.
|
||
Some others come from his 1989 entry as well. To
|
||
those who have a harder time reading backwards it says: <code>Gary lent the rug</code>,
|
||
rotated from <code>the rug gary lent</code>!</p>

<h2 id="judges-remarks">Judges’ remarks:</h2>
|
||
<p>This filter, 80 chars plus a newline, fits into a single line on most
|
||
terminals (unless your terminal has a line wrap mis-feature :-)).</p>
|
||
<p>Note in 2023: fixing this entry to work with modern systems increased the size,
|
||
originally to 106 characters but it was dropped back down to 80 with clever use
|
||
of the Makefile.</p>
|
||
<p>This entry is likely one of the smallest C implementations of this
|
||
filter, excluding programs that resort to command line or include
|
||
file tricks.</p>
|
||
<p>How does this program work? Which 3 bytes of C code can be changed
|
||
into 2 bytes, allowing the program to still work, but also stripping
|
||
the high bit off some input?</p>
|
||
<h2 id="authors-remarks">Author’s remarks:</h2>
|
||
<p>The author wishes to thank J Greely for the last 6 bytes.</p>
|
||
<p>Here’s about how it does it:</p>
|
||
<p>NOTE: Bits are referred to as 76543210, high to low.</p>
|
||
<ol type="1">
|
||
<li><p>Get the character in variable <code>a</code>. Note the fun way we check for <code>EOF</code>.
|
||
(thanks J).</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Reverse bit 6, and strip bit 5. Bit 6 determines (mostly) whether
|
||
or not this character is a letter. Bit 5 would determine case if
|
||
we cared. Assign this value to variable <code>b</code> (We need to save it,
|
||
since we need to make 2 comparisons and maybe one operation with
|
||
this value). We can’t abuse our first variable, since it saves the
|
||
bits we’re changing.</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>Check this value to see if it is a letter. It must be non-zero -
|
||
if it is zero, then we have either the <code>@</code> (64) or the
|
||
<code>`</code> (96). It also must be less than 27 - this checks the
|
||
range for letters as well as implicitly checking the value of bit 6
|
||
(if it was originally clear, it is set now, so <code>b</code> would be too big).</p></li>
|
||
<li><p>If it is not a letter, the conditional expression inside of the
|
||
<code>putchar()</code> returns the original character (<code>a</code>). Otherwise, it
|
||
returns a really messy expression that performs the actual rotation
|
||
and fixes the fifth and sixth bits:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><ol type="A">
|
||
<li>Subtract 1, to get into the range 0-25 (for the modulo operation).</li>
|
||
</ol></li>
|
||
<li><ol start="2" type="A">
|
||
<li>Add 13 to the character. Steps A and B are combined.</li>
|
||
</ol></li>
|
||
<li><ol start="3" type="A">
|
||
<li>Take this modulo 26 to make the addition wrap around.</li>
|
||
</ol></li>
|
||
<li><ol start="4" type="A">
|
||
<li>Fix bits 5 and 6, based on variable <code>a</code>.</li>
|
||
</ol></li>
|
||
<li><ol start="5" type="A">
|
||
<li>Add 1 back in (we took it out in step A.) This is okay to do <em>after</em>
|
||
step D, because we know the addition won’t trickle up past the fourth bit
|
||
(<code>b</code> would have to be 31 for this to happen).</li>
|
||
</ol></li>
|
||
</ul></li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<p>Notice that this implementation operates only on characters with the
|
||
high bit clear. The high bit can be ignored without changing the size
|
||
of the program. Also, if you know you are only dealing with seven bit
|
||
data, the size can be reduced by one byte. These are left as exercises
|
||
for the student.</p>
