Count to 10 - Hazzy - 2011-05-22

I've been reading some depressing stories about programming when a bit caught my eye:

Quote:If you can successfully write a loop that goes from 1 to 10 in every language on your resume, can do simple arithmetic without a calculator, and can use recursion to solve a real problem, you're already ahead of the pack!

Makes me wonder, how many ways can Southperry count to 10? Anything that a computer can run to print an output counts. JavaScript to C++. Python to Assembly.

Guidelines:

Using a language multiple times is fine, as long as the methodologies are different.
The quote says "loop". Don't hardcode it in. eg: Don't type out 1 through 10 and have the program print it out.
Simpler, more elegant solutions are better. Strive for those.

Define "every language" does that include the obsolete ones?

~~Unless it's something that no one has ever heard of, yes.~~

Nevermind. If it's a 'language' in even the loosest sense it counts.

Got bored after the first three, since most others are just variations of these.

I would give you a brohug if i were in front of you.

This reminded me that i had to look up ways to find how to know when a number is even or odd while making algorithms (And later coding it), and now i remembered how to calculate multiples of any number to boot too Biggrin

Im still fairly new to programing and have to restart my education of it because of a few problems that i won't bother mention, but someone would be nice to explain this to me? "printf( "%d\n", x)" only one that didn't understand exactly what it says (I can guess, sort of, but i would rather know exactly what it is).

printf can be read as "print formatted", that is, printing something to the output in a formatted manner. You can dictate that the thing you print be an interger (d), a floating point value (f), a string (s) or possibly more. Basically, it's a function, it receives order to do something and HOW to do it, then do it.

In your example: printf("%d\n", x) says to print x (whatever it may be) as an integer (%d part) - so it probably will cut off the decimal part if x is a floating point value.
The \n part, if I'm not mistaken, universally means "insert a newline" where \ is the escape sequence so that n could mean new (and not the literal character n).

As for the actual topic, I only know Java as of now (so probably I can do it in C and C++ after a 10-minute session digging up?), and here's the most obvious ways:

Code:
for(int i=1; i <=10; i++) {

   System.out.println(i);

}

Code:
int i = 1;

do {

   System.out.println(i++);

} while (i <= 10);

Code:
public static void addOne(int i) {

   if(i < 10) {

      i++;

      System.out.println(i);

      addOne(i);

   }

}

Modulo for both?

C is a low level language, it does not have any natural ways to print values without explicitly casting them into a character string via a format conversion function like printf. The other languages you can just say print @variable and the engine knows to bring the value of the variable, but with C you have to be more specific, because print requires a character string and x is a number, therefore you need to convert x into a character string to print it, either via that function, or a more torturous route such as creating a character array and printing to that array the value of the variable. Could've possibly done a print( itoa(x)); as well.

R

lol Wrote:seq(1:10)

Matlab

Quote:for(i=1:10)
i

C++

Quote:for(i=1;i<=10;i++)
{
cout<<i;
}

C++ Recursive

Quote:void main()
{
printseq(1,10);
}
void printseq(int number, int end)
{
cout<< number;
if(number <10)
{
printseq(number+1,end);
}

}

The java one looks almost exactly like C++ cept it uses System.out.println(i); instead of cout<<i;

Eosian Wrote:Modulo for both?

Pretty much yes. I remember that i was taught that but forgot about it, while i got caught up recently on a problem that needed to find if a number was Odd and Even and could not remember the method to do so.

This is still a little fuzzy but i can understand my way from what you and kalovale said, need to see it in action to completely understand it. Thx for the answers btw.

Aww, I was hoping for some degree of creativity from you guys. Sad

Code:
HAI

CAN HAS STDIO?

I HAS A VAR

IM IN YR LOOP

    UPZ VAR!!1

    VISIBLE VAR

    IZ VAR BIGR THAN 10? GTFO. KTHX

KTHX

Jeez, I gotta re-learn all this stuff. Haven't in years.
I would post binary code but that's too simple compared to what you guys wrote =3=

Indeed. Machine code is simpler than .NET

How so?

vb.net is almost identical to the VB i posted.
Even C# and C++.net work with the C examples I gave.

Sorry, Eosian. Let me clarify.

I was making fun of his statement that binary code is easier than "the examples posted here".

Ah, OK. Internet. Lack of tone. Programming discussion. Bad chin.
