hey, I did not know that bit about zip software, though I know a few compression algorithms and the most basic one being huffman coding...
btw I was going through the official website of the contest and found new program submissions which were amazing.. could not believe what people cound pack in a C program with less than 4K characters(that is the limit of program for submission).. QUOTE 2) The size of your program source must be <= 4096 bytes in length. The number of characters excluding whitespace (tab, space, newline, formfeed, return), and excluding any ; { or } immediately followed by whitespace or end of file, must be <= 2048. A few of the entries created graphics not easily made even in photoshop.... maybe comparing a bit too far.. but u need to see it to believe it... Also I suppose the contest is currently open, anyone interested...??? Their website as nagu gave is: www.ioccc.org Cheers. |

WOW, that was brilliant. Although it looks an awful lot like the linux source code... hmm... getting fishy. Cse-icons, you should try out for it (after all, aren't you the one always sending the C riddles?). Watch me cook up something in a week.

Zip software is amazing riddles of numbering and sequencing. Now, I am not perfectly clear either but as I understand it, this is how the zip software works (and much like the code for 12 days of Christmas). Let’s take the following lyrics only: On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me a partridge in a pear tree. On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree. I have color coordinated them to show you the ‘group sequence’ as I have explained in my post (read it here). As you can see, it becomes bit more clear what group sequence means. So then I would assign
So in a nut shell, this is how your zip software works—but faster and with better sequencing to reduce the size. This post has been edited by BuffaloHELP: May 19 2005, 01:41 AM |

Thanks osknockout, I thought abt contesting but the competition is damn good.. Also dont have much time on my hands now.. may be next time... but even looking at the winning entries gives a lot of new ideas and understanding of the quality of brilliant people out there... Cheers. |

You're welcome cse-icons. Hey I have an idea for you. You should make a random C/C++ riddle program. That way we can be confused both ways and you'll probably get some real recognition. Looks like my dev. computer shut down... bummer. Make that week a month.

I did not understand what you meant by random C/C++ riddle?? but I sure would post anything interesting that I come across.. btw I am waiting for your riddle/puzzle??? nothing like a good C/C++ puzzle...

QUOTE hmmm...

Pretty simple actually, make a C/C++ program in obfuscated code that tells riddles. Get it? user<->utter confusion<->source viewer - it'll be fun both ways  ... oh yeah, make sure it compiles on Dev-C++ (then it should compile on anything) Yeah, you'll have to wait a little while. Apparently my bros. "accidently" reformatted my PC. So I decided since it was already blank, I might as well switch over to Linux and or the Operating System which I'm very slowly developing (still on Hello World, sadly enough). Since I've found it a pleasurable time installing Gentoo and understanding the intricated dependencies of compilers which criss-cross, it'll take some time getting everything figured out. |
