Obfuscate Code Contest 3!

[Darobat]

Beer Hunter, Your entry is scary. lol. And yes thats OK format for it.

[schloob]

did you get mine? just making sure!

[Darobat]

5 Working entries including mine

6 days left!

5 Working entries including mine

I'll try one more time. If i doesn't work on the next attempt I give up.

[Beer Hunter]

It seems that we have reached the deadline. Here's my entry.

[gamma]

It seems that we have reached the deadline. Here's my entry.

In that case: my entry

IMHO: A lot shorter, less readable, more cryptic, more f*cked up and... a nice graphical design of the source code .

And... don't forget, although the program compiles on a C-compiler, it won't let you play the game

[exomo]

@beer hunter: can't get it (operation time out)

@gamma: very nive code. although I think it doesn't do what it should. & and # instead of X and O and you don't clear the screen. You're dismissed *gg*.
NO, just making fun.

[gamma]

@gamma: very nive code. ... and you don't clear the screen.

system("cls") on unix? Eeep! Skipped that part deliberately .

[coolian]

Yeah, I can't seem to view beerhunter's code too.

OMG Gamma, get a job ! Even though I generally don't like obfuscated code, this really is hilarious.

Hilarious? Why? Isn't it obfuscated? Or? I basically don't get you.

And, yes, I will get a job.

[Togra]

Hilarious? Why?

Something with a joke about a sole variable maybe...

Isn't it obfuscated?

Yet another joke ! It looks obfuscate-optimized to me!
You get my vote for now, unless Beer Hunter's gets his server running, I'm curious about his entry and others' ofcourse.

With "I generally don't like obfuscated code", I meant I rather code clean and with some purpose (if there is such a thing). Or in other words, I'm just not good at it .

Sorry about the misunderstanding and the job-thing, that was not so funny I guess...

[exomo]

Anybody know this code?

Code: Select all

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

unsigned b;
char JOKE[100] = "#&*^(*=@#^*_: &%(#%)(#&#%@&(*: Don't run me on a c-compiler!";

void C(unsigned x)
{
    if(!(b&x))
      if(((b>>10)&(x>>1))==(x>>1)||((b>>10)&(x>>1))==0)
      {
          puts("Win!");
          exit(0);
      }
}

int main(void)
{
    b+=1?1022:puts(JOKE) < 0 ,puts("");
    for(b&=~(0xf<<19);((b>>19)&0xf)<9;b+=(1<<19),((b>>19)&0xf)%3?1:puts("|"))
      printf("|%c",b&(2<<((b>>19)&0xf))?' ':JOKE[(b>>(10+((b>>19)&0xf)))&(022/11)]);
    printf("Player%2d:",b&3/2);
    while (b&1022)
    {
        b&=~(0x1ff<<23);b|=(getchar()<<23);
        if(b&(1<<31)) break;

        if(((b>>23)-'0')>=1&&((b>>23)-'0')<=9&&(b&(1<<((b>>23)-'0'))))
        {
            b^=(b&(1<<((b>>23)-'0')));
            ((b^=1)&1)&&(b|=(0x200<<((b>>23)-'0')));
            C(14);
            C(112);
            C(146);
            C(168);
            C(292);
            C(546);
            C(584);
            C(896);
            puts("");
            for(b&=~(15<<19);((b>>19)&0xf)<9;b+=(1<<19),((b>>19)&0xf)%3?1:puts("|"))
                printf("|%c",b&(2<<((b>>19)&0xf))?' ':JOKE[(b>>(10+((b>>19)&0xf)))&1]);
            printf("Player" "%2d:", b&1);
            continue;
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

Still crazy enough, but a little more readable.
(Sorry for destroying your Art gamma)

EDIT:
and if you want to see mine: here it is

EDIT2:
forgot to mention it doesn't compile on Darobat's computer, but on my own.

Hummm, I may sound stupid, but... What exactly is obfuscated code? When I first read it, I figured it would be like the shortest amount of code to get the job done...but viewing the above code...I am kind of lost. And that whole joke code thingy...totally blew me away.
Someone explain obfuscate, and/or obfuscate-optimized???
Lil lost.
