Code golf
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
An example round of code golf running on 4clojure.com, showing the problem expressed as a series of unit tests, special requirements for the round's problem, and a results graph (the "league") with a personal score.

Code golf is a type of recreational computer programming competition in which participants strive to achieve the shortest possible code that implements a certain algorithm. Such tournaments may also be named with the programming language used (for example Perl golf).

History

Whilst the term was apparently first used in 1999 with Perl,[1] and later popularised through the use of Perl to write a program that performed RSA encryption,[2] similar informal competition was known to have been popular with earlier APL hackers and probably others. Today the term has grown to be applied to a wide variety of languages.
Etymology

The term is derived from the similarity of its scoring system with that of conventional golf - ie: participants seek to achieve the lowest possible score, rather than the highest as is the standard in most sports' scoring systems.
Languages designed specifically for golfing

Several new languages have been created specifically with code golfing in mind. The most well-known examples are Golfscript and Flogscript, both stack-based Turing-complete languages which provide powerful constructs for concisely expressing ideas in code.
Types of code golf

Some code golf questions, such as those posed on general programming sites, may not require implementation in a specific programming language. However, this is limits the style of problems that it is possible for the problem designers to pose (for example, by limiting the use of certain language features). In addition, the creation of such 'open' questions has resulted in the design of code golf specific programming language dialects such as REBMU (a dialect of REBOL). Both online and live competitions may also include time limits.

This is affectionately known as code golf: the lower your score the better, get it?

We'll also provide a chart showing how you stack up compared to everyone else on the site."

Sample input:_

Remember when you ran away and I got on my knees and begged you not to
leave because I'd go berserk?? Well...
You left me anyhow and then the days got worse and worse and now you see
I've gone completely out of my mind.. And..

They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa
To the funny farm. Where life is beautiful all the time and I'll be
happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they're
coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!!!!

You thought it was a joke and so you laughed, you laughed when I had said
that loosing you would make me flip my lid.. RIGHT???
I know you laughed, I heard you laugh, you laughed you laughed and
laughed and then you left, but now you know I'm utterly mad... And..

They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa,
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa.
To the happy home. With trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket
weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they're
coming to take me away, ha-haaa!!!

I cooked your food, I cleaned your house, and this is how you pay me back
for all my kind unselfish loving deeds.. Huh??
Well you just wait, they'll find you yet and when they do they'll put you
in the ASPCA, you mangy mutt!!! And...

They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa.
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa.
To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time and I'll be happy
to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they're coming
to take me away, ha-haaa!!!
To the happy home, with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket
weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they're
coming to take me away, ha-haa!!!
To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time... (fade out)

Hey, buddy!
Yes officer..
You a head?
No, but I'm catching up, ha ha ha....
