You have to count the number of loops it's going to break out of. 00:37:59 So it's perfect for a language that wants to be hard to read. 00:38:03 Yup. 00:38:13 Cool. 00:38:17 If you add or remove a loop without realizing that there's a numbered break in there, you'll break the break. 00:38:36 Sounds lovely and esoteric to me. 00:41:20 -!- imode has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 00:43:40 -!- imode has joined. 00:47:38 Does the number have to be a constant? 00:51:52 nope 00:52:23 you could, if you really wanted to, ask the user how many loops they'd like to break out of. 01:06:37 -!- tswe_tt has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 01:07:04 -!- tswe_tt has joined. 01:11:49 -!- doesthiswork has joined. 01:23:56 -!- Phantom__Hoover has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 01:24:19 -!- Phantom__Hoover has joined. 01:35:51 -!- MDude has quit (Quit: Going offline, see ya!

(The independent one needs more cards to encode a program than the one for specific byte sizes.) 05:12:33 Here is one (untested, may contain mistakes): " N O6 A O4 H N ENX E K BU I OA H A. PA N D LB E AEU ABG G 9" 05:13:04 Do you like this? 05:16:36 huh, google's recaptcha tests recognition of vehicles in a photo 05:18:12 isn't this the kind of thing that google's automatic driver can recognise? 05:18:15 They phased out the "select all squares with Sarah Connor" captcha 05:22:45 (It is actually a 80-column card, so there are five more spaces afterward, although the copy in RAM will be immediately overwritten anyways so it doesn't matter; using spaces means less holes will be punched into the card, though) 05:25:47 If you are making a code golf with MIX, you could have the variants. Such as, binary program loading, as well as text program loading, and in the text case, you could have variants such as if some characters cannot be loaded from cards, as well as the scoring, such as the total number of cards, total number of holes punched into the cards, or total mass of the cards (in this last case, you may allow "lace columns", which have an undefined value). 05:31:59 `5 w 05:33:52 Oh, right. 05:35:13 -!- joast has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 05:35:28 it's actually better without all that bot spam in the way 05:35:34 `? shachaf 05:35:39 that would be an interesting code golf: write the lightest program that does a given task 05:36:04 and only allow languages that can be used with punch cards 05:40:18 Yes, I thought so perhaps 05:49:20 -!- hppavilion[1] has joined. 06:06:02 -!- contrapumpkin has quit (Quit: My MacBook Pro has gone to sleep.
