GPP is the General Purpose Preprocessor, a macro preprocessor for various forms of structured and unstructured text.
A quine is a computer program which takes no input and produces a copy of its own source code as its only output. There’s usually a few conditions on what the program can do, like not reading it’s source code during execution.
I wrote what I believe to be the first non-vacuous quine ever in the GPP language.
There’s at least two things that one might conflate under the “Daily Coding Problem” rubric:
They’re related, as the book is a byproduct of the success of the email list. Both are deficient, but for different reasons
Once upon a time, I wrote a reasonably-strict-C89 C language program that “relocates” a function in memory and then runs it. That relocated function can relocate itself again, and run that copy, and so on and so forth.
I wrote a Cryptoquip solver.
My big contribution here is using the “shape” of the words to narrow the choice of clear text letters.
I wrote a program that generates images in the style of Piet Mondrian:
Generate more images in this style, including tuning parameters.
This is something:
The Go programming language has a unique, built-in concurrency model that can make some processing much easier.
Have one goroutine do some (probably recursive) work. It puts results on a channel. The main goroutine reads results from the channel and possibly does some filtering on those results, like output unique values.
