You should see the source for my disassembler control. It actually contains spaces! And comments! |

What's the point of this? Nobody can read your code anyway.  |

It'a been done before, RT-55J. See smr.c on IOCCC. |

I'm too lazy to compile that program.

My insignificant contribution to this thread:
I present to you, THE UNIVERSE'S SMALLEST AND MOST EFFICIENT COMPUTER PROGRAM.
Yep, that's it. |

It says "Hello world". I figured it out myself via manual bit shifting. |

In honor of The IOCCC I decided one day to write my own obfuscated C program. So I started with a lot of random junk and modified it until it did what I wanted, then I revised the code quite a few times (5 times, to be exact). And finally, I ended up with what I'm going to consider my first obfuscated C program, which I named, "red owl":
main(){int a=0x1612b9b1;putchar((a>>16)<<2);do putchar("red owl"[a&7]);while(a>>=3);}
If you can't guess what it does, go ahead and run it. It's a very simple idea, and just an interesting take on an old trick.
Feel free to write and post your own odd creations, as well! |
