Q: Turing complete language interpreter code golf

A challenge I thought that would be very cool is to make an interpreter for a Turing-complete language of your choosing. The rules are simple: You may use any language to create this interpreter even if it is newer than this challenge. You may use any Turing-complete language. This will be sco...

@ChristopherPeart Because of your JS answer Chrome asked me if I wanted to translate my page :P

Christopher Peart

I think Pavel said it was Vietnamese

Heh, that reminds me of this conversation

@Pavel loggerpro is the vernier thing right?

it was pretty bad

@Maltysen That's it exactly.

I just exported the data as a CSV and opened it in Excel.

lol

10:37 PM

@WheatWizard OK, cool. Computer science?

@DJMcMayhem Math, although I can't say I haven't thought about it.

Anyone else here watch NASCAR?

Hey @WheatWizard

@wat Yeah

So AFAIK in Riker's The People's Python script, you are import

I was wondering if we could trade

10:43 PM

yes

or wheat is

?

Its mine but it is labeled as only wheat instead of wheatwizard

yeah I saw

what do you have to trade?

reversed I think

uhhh what has happened to my internet browsing?? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armin_Meiwes

A bit NSFW btw

Would cat|perl be a valid submission to codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/111278/… ?

Probably not, I'd count that as an eval-like command

But it technically isn't. On the other hand, one could make the argument that my Bash script isn't really doing the interpreting, in that case.

It's awfully close to the deleted 05AB1E answer that simply executed the input as Python

@wat I don't know I want to think about this a bit

10:53 PM

I'm really tempted to post it though.

@ETHproductions How does one see deleted answers

I'm interested

@wat By gaining rep

You have to have a certain amount of rep

It's one of the privileges you can unlock.

I see

10:56 PM

4000 I think?

AFAIK 2000?

Fuck it, I'm posting it, may the downvotes fall where they may.

I posted it already

Destructible Watermelon

hey one time I wrote a BCT interpreter in Turtlèd

wat

10:56 PM

yes?

hax

Got 2 downvotes already!

Christopher Peart

Didn't even see the answer

s/2/3

ok, +1/-3

11:00 PM

I think I might try an actual solution with Del|m|t

Christopher Peart

BTW if anyone didn't know I am offering a 50 bounty on my answer to anagram quine

11:14 PM

Hey look, the horizontal scrollbar went away now

That's because the message went into the oblivion of transcript

I'd better not press the "load older message" button then

Q: Solve the New York Times Spelling Bee

The New York Times periodically runs a puzzle they call the "Spelling Bee" in which they list six "allowed" letters plus one "mandatory" letter and challenge the reader the form as many five-letter-or-longer dictionary words as possible out of those letters. Each "allowed" letter can appear 0 or ...

code-golf word-puzzle

horizontal scrollbar?

There was a message aways back which tricked Firefox into thinking that the chat page was twice as wide as it actually is

11:23 PM

What was the message?

I don't actually know

Oh, I see, it was this:

@0																												'

...when did I get 2012 rep?

That's all sites combined

I see

Is the scrollbar back?

Nope

And please don't try to bring it back ;P

@Pavel @wat your argument of "nothing in the question says we can't do that" is alike to the guy who says nothing in the question says he can't assume the output is stored in the variable l.

@Riker Hey, I'm slowly updating the V-wiki. Would you mind reading through the recent changes and let me know if everything is clear/easy to understand?

LegionMammal978

CMC (fastest-code): Write a program or function that takes n ≥ 0 and returns whether or not 10^ n + 3 is divisible by 7

(It's hard for me to proof-read it since I already know vim well, so I'm not sure if it makes everything clearer or is just a giant info-dump)

@wat I think I would like to keep __import__ over reversed

:(

@LegionMammal978 n <= ?

LegionMammal978

11:34 PM

@wat n < 2^32

...that will be difficult

LegionMammal978

It's easy in JS: n=>n%6==4

but that is not fast

...wait, it's that easy?

LegionMammal978

yup

Is this code-golf?

LegionMammal978

11:38 PM

No, it's fastest-code

Remember, the residue of an exponential function is always periodic

C: int f(int n) { return (n % 6 == 4); }

LegionMammal978

That's invalid, n is undefined

@LegionMammal978 think again

LegionMammal978

C: int f(int n) { return (n % 6 == 4); }

...wait, what?

LegionMammal978

11:40 PM

C > C++

Ohhhhh yeah! C uses ints where 0=false, anything else = true

Destructible Watermelon

@pavel wanna help me with the maze koth? again, not code, just round lengths and how long bots should take to respawm

LegionMammal978

@wat flags as dupe of earlier answer

> earlier

LegionMammal978

Mine was 18:39, yours was 18:40

11:42 PM

I think you got them mixed up

LegionMammal978

Look at the edit history of yours

It says 18:40 right there

Destructible Watermelon

BCT is good TC lang for that challenge probs

define bct

Destructible Watermelon

esolangs.org/wiki/BCT

Here is my BCT interpreter in Turtlèd. I don't remember how/if it works

!-l[*+.r_]' !l[ l]r[ u.(;d' u)(1'0)(0d)(0u)(1[ r].u{ l})' d( r)+]

11:46 PM

nm found it

Destructible Watermelon

also by interpreter, I mean it halts iff the BCT program halts

data comes in first

@DJMcMayhem sure!

Not home rn so might be a little while tho

> normal, insert, command and visual

Lol rip select

Lol

Select is visual

I suppose V also has a psuedo-command mode

Eli5?

Uh, it's like a while loop looking for one of 2-3 different characters before breaking out of the loop and running the command

I don't know if it really counts as a different mode since it's emulating command mode
