@Mayube Yeah it's basically what I did when developing Ohm

I think T`\x00-\x1f\x7f works in Retina but I can't test because TIO is weird about null bytes

Again, the the literal characters in the code

@NickClifford thanks for the tip, definitely gunna do that for braingolf

How ironic that this gets closed as a dupe. :P

@Mayube Go for it! It really helps if/when you're stuck on coming up with builtins, etc.

I mean in braingolf 0 is a quine, but it's not a proper quine so :P

@Mayube Does this work? I've never used braingolf and I don't have python3 so I can't try it, but I think it'll work. "V#!1+!@v!_v@v_"V#!1+!@v!_v@v_

Wait, no. braingolf doesn't do strings does it?

Erik the Outgolfer

@LeakyNun OK done that, now I will cancel the stars on the original message so that it's cleaned up (now the resources would not vanish in 14 days).

Done. I was planning to do this for a week or so.

Mayube

@Riley You can use TIO for Braingolf, set it to python 3, copy braingolf.py to the code section, add -c as the first argument, and the Braingolf code as the 2nd argument

@LeakyNun See above

Leaky Nun

@Mayube alright

Mayube

once it's a little more complete I might push for it to actually be added to TIO, but for now that's how I do it :P

Q: Zooming in on a map

Your task is to, given a map as input, zoom it out or in, depending on the scale. For example, given the following (badly made) map: ..____.... ../OOO\... ..\OO/\... .......... And a scale factor of 2, you should first separate it into 2x2 sections: .. | __ | __ | .. | .. .. | /O | OO | \. |...

@Shaggy You may take the inputs in any consistent order

@Christopher Over, not at! :p

In other words, you can't assume that the larger input will be first

Mayube

@Riley holy crap somebody actually did it

Christopher

15:11

@Shaggy Ah makes sense. But then it just hit a wall :(

Shaggy

@Mego So you're saying we need to allow for the larger input being first or second?

Anonymous

@Shaggy Yes. That's how all of the current answers have done it, and the challenge does not say that you can assume a particular ordering.

Anonymous

Also see the comments

Shaggy

@Mego OK, thanks :) I'll need to update my answer, so.

Riley

@Mayube The docs say that @ should pop before printing, but it doesn't. Is that a bug?

Mayube

15:15

@Riley it might be, lemme check

Hmm, seems to be popping for me

Erik the Outgolfer

@Riley I think that &operator makes the operator not to pop from the stack.

Mayube

@EriktheOutgolfer Hmm seems like ti does, that's a bug, lemme fix that

oh yeah it's a bug caused by the change to the multi-stack system

already had to fix this elsewhere

Shaggy

Hm, that wasn't too bad, only cost me 12 bytes :)

Mayube

There we go fixed that, lemme just push it real quick

Pushed and fixed

oh here's an odd bug

if the last character of the braingolf code is @ with the & modifier, it'll still print the last item in the stack, but if there's any character after the @ it won't

so 6"!!"[..]&@ will print 16 exclamation marks followed by 33, but 6"!!"[..]&@= will print 16 exclamation marks followed by an empty array []

@Riley oh I think I might know why you were having that issue. Your Quine works, but also throws an IndexError

Weird. Fix'd, your quine still works

Riley

@Mayube My quine shouldn't work if @ pops.

Christopher

15:29

CMC: make a quine builder with regex: you take an input string that has all the chars needed for your regex and print out the edited string. Non working example (/(\.)|(a-z)\$) and input of (/(\.)|(a-z)\$)sjdkljlfdjldfj returns (/(\.)|(a-z)\$)

Riley

This should work though: "V#!1+!@R!@18v@R@18"V#!1+!@R!@18v@R@18

Kritixi Lithos

what language is this @Riley?

Riley

@KritixiLithos Braingolf

Mayube

@Riley Okay I've found where it's not popping. It seems that it pops the 16 items you print, but then when you switch stack and use R to switch back, the items are back int he stack. No idea why

if you check the stack after printing 16, but before switching stacks, the stack shows as empty

but if you check again after doing v@R it has the 16 items in it

@Adám How do you make a cross, like the one in Leaky's CMC, in Dyalog? The closest I got was to making a / line

I can reverse it to obtain the `` line, but how do you combine them both?

Adám

@KritixiLithos Many approaches. Here's one: ' #'[(⌽∨⊢)∘.=⍨⍳5]

@KritixiLithos Another approach: a←''⍴⍨2⍴5 ⋄ (1 1⍉a)←'X' ⋄ (1 1⍉⌽a)←'X' ⋄ a

Kritixi Lithos

Ah, the ∨ operator

Then using that on my previous solution gives me: {' #'[(⌽∨⊢)(⍵-1)=∘.+⍨⍳⍵]}

With ⎕IO←0

Adám

@KritixiLithos But why ∘.+?

@KritixiLithos An interesting one: ' X'[(=/∨4=+/)¨⍳2⍴5] Can you figure it out?

Luis Mendo

16:51

@LeakyNun Haha. Try it. It comes from Matlab's [why]()

Adám

@KritixiLithos ⎕UCS converts numbers to unicode characters and vice versa. So the result becomes an array of null bytes and 1 bytes. Quite unprintable, but works on TIO.

@KritixiLithos (⊂1 2 3),(⊂4 5 6) ←→ (1 2 3)(4 5 6) ←→ ↓2 3⍴⍳6

When a Cardinal command works with the divisors of a number, the corresponding Ordinal mode command will often do something similar…

your readme is so long... which means that the language is quite unique... which means that it would be quite hard

CMC: Given a string how many possible ways are there to permute its bytes?

e.g. @@1 is 3 (@@1,@1@,1@@)

Leaky Nun

@WheatWizard pick a language

Wheat Wizard

@LeakyNun Python

Leaky Nun

alright

Wheat Wizard

I wanted to day Brain-Flak, but that would just be cruel

Riley

@WheatWizard Can there be multibyte characters?

Leaky Nun

18:48

112 bytes is way too long

g=lambda n:n<2or n*g(n-1)
p=lambda a:a==[]or a[0]*p(a[1:])
f=lambda s:g(len(s))//p([g(s.count(c))for c in set(s)])

Wheat Wizard

@Riley Lets say no

Leaky Nun

93 bytes

g=lambda n:n<2or n*g(n-1)
def f(s):
 r=g(len(s))
 for c in set(s):r//=g(s.count(c))
 return r

Riley

@WheatWizard 05AB1E, 3 bytes: œÙg

Leaky Nun

@WheatWizard do you have any golfing suggestions?

Wheat Wizard

Nope

If you use python2 you can save a byte but thats All I can see

Leaky Nun

18:53

sure

Wheat Wizard

Oh actually

use ; in your function to cut down on whitespace

Leaky Nun

I don't think you can

Wheat Wizard

Yeah you can't

Leaky Nun

you can't use a ; before a for loop or a while loop

Wheat Wizard

thats one of those rules I always get mixed up

Anonymous

You can move the r=g(len(s)) to immediately after the colon I think

Leaky Nun

@Mego how?

Anonymous

def f(s):r=g(len(s))
 for c in set(s):r//=g(s.count(c))
 return r

Anonymous

I think that works

Leaky Nun

no that doesn't

now where's the itertools solution which I won't write?

Anonymous

from itertools import*;lambda s:len(set(permutations(s)))

Leaky Nun

18:56

@Mego how many bytes is that?

Martin Ender

@WheatWizard Mathematica: Length@*Permutations, if input is a list of characters. Otherwise append @*Characters.

CJam, 4 bytes: qe!,

Wheat Wizard

Ooh nearly tying riley

Anonymous

@LeakyNun I don't know, I'm too lazy to count

Leaky Nun

it's 57 bytes

now I'm determined to beat it

Q: Anaglot Polygrams

Task Write some code that can be rearranged into n different programs in n different languages each outputting a distinct number from 1 to n. No two languages should be the same however different versions of "the same language" will be considered distinct languages. Each language should run on...

@Mego Why do you have ,1?

@WheatWizard Reduce needs a starting parameter

Wheat Wizard

Nope

Oh wait it starts with the first element

@LuisMendo what would you translate "Para que nada nos amarre que no nos una nada." as?

with amarre and una being conjugations of amarrar and unir, respectively.

it's from a poem, but the translation I found makes no sense

trichoplax

poems don't have to make sense as long as they rhyme

Riker

I get "So that we are not bound, nothing should unite us." instead of "Let nothing unite us, so that nothing can separate us.".

@trichoplax yes but what if it doesn't rhyme :p

trichoplax

I wasn't being serious about either :P

Riker

I know, neither was I

trichoplax

The first sentence seems to make a sort of sense to me, but a different one from the second version

I resisted the temptation to pollute the challenge comments with a witty response...

Riker

what's the consensus on outputting characters with a char code of something?

i.e. outputting null byte for 0

specifically in brainfuck
