Q: Given the name of a language, output "Hello, World" in that language

Given the english-name of a top-100 language defined in this Wikipedia article, output "Hello, World!" in that language. You should use Google Translate's translation for your program. You are allowed to use the translator of your choice if it is not in Google Translate. Do not use any pre-made ...

I had an idea for a challenge like that a while back but it doesn't really work

Actually, wait.

This is different

I wanted to make a kolmogorov-complexity where you could output the string in any language

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

I can't tell you how happy I am to see that people are using Jolf :D

Downgoat

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ I would use Jolf more if there were readthedocs docs

Maltysen

\o/ counting sheep done

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Downgoat I hate readthedocs

It doesn't work for me

Downgoat

2:07 AM

then you're not doing it right

it worked great for TeaScript's docs

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ I tried to use jolf, but i needs file io and running locally.

Sowee.

quartata

You can upload a file to the interpreter

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Downgoat If I knew how it worked, I'd use it

^^

quartata

I don't even use CJam locally anymore though so

Downgoat

are you using rst or markdown?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

2:10 AM

md

quartata

@Downgoat Markdown

Downgoat

you have to use rst

Maltysen

only 0 gives insomnia. I know that because I ran it for cases 0 - 1e6

:P

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

ihaichugoogle

well i still need the stopping number

Maltysen

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ huh?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

2:14 AM

@Maltysen did you do the problem?

@Maltysen i hate you

Maltysen

yeah

pancakes is much harder

So how many people here are working on Code Jam?

Downgoat

@Mego me and @ChrisJester-Young and probably some other people

Maltysen

@Mego me

Dennis

@Mego ಠ

Maltysen

@Dennis didcha do pancakes?

Anonymous

2:18 AM

I did A small and large, and C small. C large is currently churning away.

Downgoat

@Mego ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Dennis

@Maltysen I didda do nothing yet. My daughter has to go to bed first.

I'm too inebriated currently to come up with a solution to B.

That might be a tomorrow-morning problem.

Alex A.

@Maltysen Pancakes?

Maltysen

I think its solvable by representing it as a graph with each flip being an edge

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

ooh that might work

Dennis

@Mego I'd rather code drunk than in the morning...

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

well i have 20 more hours, dinnertime now!!!

and ^^

epicTCK

i did a big and small and nothing else. I cant figure them out, im braindead. besides, i hike 20 miles tommorow, so I GTG to bed

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

2:19 AM

\o/

roflmao

show me?

Dennis

One can use any freely available programming language one wants in Code Jam, right?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@Mego in-n-out is not 3 words?

Kenny Lau

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ It's so difficult...

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@Dennis yeah

Alex A.

@Dennis Yes

Maltysen

2:20 AM

@Dennis yeah, do jelly to piss them off

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@KennyLau My J solution?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

I tried jolf but too hard.

Kenny Lau

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ sure

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@KennyLau I see.

Maltysen

Pyth would have been possible for A, but I didn't wanna take any chances

@Dennis By morning I mean like 3 pm

epicTCK

@Dennis yeah i think

Anonymous

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Split on spaces

Dennis

@Maltysen Jelly is neat for short, but it isn't particularly easy to write. CJam on the other hand...

Anonymous

I don't think Code Jam accepts submissions in languages other than the choices in that drop-down box during registration

Anonymous

Or else I would have done A (and probably C) in Seriously

Alex A.

2:21 AM

Sure it does

Dennis

@Mego That's my kind of morning.

Anonymous

Well maybe not A

epicTCK

@Dennis use my programming lang grond they'll never find the compiler.

Anonymous

But definitely C

Maltysen

@Mego there was an other

Anonymous

2:22 AM

Base conversion and primality testing are super nice in Seriously

epicTCK

well bai

Maltysen

@Mego what about graphs?

Anonymous

@Maltysen Yeah but that doesn't mean they'd have the relevant interpreters for every language

Dennis

Here's a thought: A⁺ for A, B for B, C++ for C and D for D.

Mars Ultor

leave Code Jam for later

Anonymous

2:23 AM

@Maltysen Nope it sucks at graphs

Maltysen

@Dennis haha roflamo

why c++ for C?

Dennis

I didn't want A⁺ to feel alone.

Use nasm for all, regret life choices

BrainSteel

I assume you guys are doing GCJ, eh?

Chris Jester-Young

@quartata It's a serious Scheme implementation, with a pretty decent collection of packages (known as "eggs"). If you need good interoperability with C libraries or just want to compile Scheme code to C, it's worth checking out.

@BrainSteel in Rust!

BrainSteel

I did all mine in C :D Got all of the smalls, but C & D large are giving me trouble.

Anonymous

@BrainSteel That was abandoned years ago

Chris Jester-Young

@epicTCK What is "rn"?

Anonymous

I'm using Python 3 because it's wonderful

Alex A.

@BrainSteel IT'S YOU!

None of the qualification round problems are difficult this time :)

I dislike C though, because it gives us the file contents ahead of time

Anonymous

That makes FGITW brute force solutions viable

BrainSteel

2:31 AM

Yeah--and it requires greater-than-64-bit integers :(

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

nice challenge @KennyLau

Chris Jester-Young

@epicTCK I would have been happy to try to help you on IRC, but you've gotta stick around on IRC a lot longer than that. :-P

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

Okay.

A: Find the program that prints this integer sequence (Cops' thread)

Vim 36 keystrokes i****<esc>:let @q="^*i****$**@***"<cr><n>@qbD Here is the code unrelated to number generation: :let @q=" "<cr><n>@qbD Meaning I am revealing 5 out of 19 characters. <n> is the input. Here are some sample outputs: 1@q: 1 2@q: 3 6@q: 18

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

I'll work on it, then not post.

That challenge is really unclear because it doesn't have a good definition of what "vital" means

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

Yeah, that's true.

I'm a little sad, because It's a really cool and novel idea, but not very well executed. (as of yet)

However, I really like my answer!

Anonymous

Hence why I VTC'd it

Sp3000

@Mego I never got a response for the BF comment, so I'm VTCing for that too

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

Vim isn't supposed to be a number generator.

It's really fun to abuse though.

jsoftware.com

Or, more specifically: www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/vocabul.htm

Alex A.

@Sp3000 That URL is amusing to me because they could have spelled out vocabulary with 3 extra characters or the oft-used vocab with 2 fewer, but instead they used vocabul.

I had no idea Code Jam was today so I've kinda missed out on that...
