Cody Boone Ferguson ffdd724032 Format, typo, consistency check YYYY/README.md
There are many fixes made but a few questions remain so when I reach
those years I will address those then. Unfortunately, due to
infrastructure work right now, this is all I can say even though there
are a number of things I'd like to say.

<h1 id="sixteenth-international-obfuscated-c-code-contest">Sixteenth International Obfuscated C Code Contest</h1>
<h2 id="standard-ioccc-stuff">Standard IOCCC stuff</h2>
<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>The IOCCC has a website and now has a number of international mirrors. The
primary site can be found at <a href="https://www.ioccc.org">www.ioccc.org</a>.</p>
<p>Some ANSI C compilers are not quite as good as they should be. If
yours is lacking, you may need to compile using gcc instead of your
local compiler.</p>
<h2 id="remarks-on-some-of-the-entries">Remarks on some of the entries</h2>
<p>There were some outstanding entries that did not win. Unfortunately
some very good entries lost because they:</p>
<ul>
<li>depended too much on non-portable side effects in expressions;</li>
<li>depended too much on a particular byte order;</li>
<li>required the use of a special script, data file or pseudo-machine
language that was not supplied with the entry.</li>
</ul>
<p>We hope the authors of some of those entries will fix and re-submit
them for the next IOCCC.</p>
<p>We believe you will be impressed with this year’s winning entries The <a href="ollinger/index.html">Best of
Show</a> is a fine example of obfuscation. But don’t ignore
the other entries! There are games, programs that speak, ones that compile code
and <a href="anonymous/index.html">one that <em>might</em> run binaries you already have</a>.</p>
<p>The <a href="bellard/index.html">Best abuse of the rules</a> is technically allowed by the
<a href="rules.txt">rules</a>. This year we awarded it again, but don’t assume you can get
away with using the same technique next time … :-)</p>
<p>This year there were several repeat authors. This is understating the
achievement a little - <a href="../authors.html#Brian_Westley">one
person</a> has won 8 times
before! (Please note that judging is done completely anonymously.)</p>
<h2 id="why-has-it-taken-so-long-to-post-the-winning-source">Why has it taken so long to post the winning source?</h2>
<p>This is somewhat my (Simon Cooper’s) fault. I do apologize to the IOCCC
community for this! Judging does take quite a lot of time, and I
over-committed myself several times this year. Without divulging too much,
we do look at and work out what every entry does.</p>
<h2 id="final-comments">Final Comments</h2>
<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.
