Also for removing tags I used <.*?> which should work most of the time if you do the tag removal before unescaping the html, the only place it fails is if there is a > in a string inside the tag e.g. <span class="lun>ch">

@Trelz btw on essay pro assume anything in the article text which consists of square brackets with numbers inside is a reference
regex: \[[0-9]*?\]

493 bytes including all paragraphs before the contents (not just first), printing on a printer and printing normally

MSoRMvzH8g

Mar 16, 2017 18:00

If it's just the first paragraph I have 412 bytes including literal printing (on linux/macos)

MSoRMvzH8g

Mar 16, 2017 17:59

Are we doing just the first paragraph in the wikipedia article or all paragraphs before the contents? @J8 @Trelz

MSoRMvzH8g

Oh no

^ input = "vihara"

MSoRMvzH8g

Mar 16, 2017 17:43

Vihara (विहार, vihāra) is the Sanskrit and Pali term for a Buddhist monastery. It originally meant "a secluded place in which to walk", and referred to "dwellings" or "refuges" used by wandering monks during the rainy season.

Let's say just print or return the text

MSoRMvzH8g

Mar 14, 2017 21:13

MSoRMvzH8g

Except the printing part, and maybe the PDF part if you don't want to do that

MSoRMvzH8g

Mar 14, 2017 21:12

Let's do it

MSoRMvzH8g

Mar 14, 2017 21:12

Serious

MSoRMvzH8g

Mar 14, 2017 21:10

Next golf: input a topic name and write an essay on that topic by taking the text from wikipedia before the contents, and removing references. Finally, cite a yahoo answer containing the topic name. Generate PDF then print. Python 3.5, shortest lunch wins.
