CoordStar Author: Zirias Category: Christmas Challenge System: C64 Language: Assembler, cc65/ca65 syntax Len source code: 1146 Len exe file: 78 Len code only: 64 Instructions: To run the .prg, simply load it and type RUN. To autostart it with vice: x64sc coordstar.prg To build from source yourself (needs cc65 installed), run cl65 -t none -o coordstar.prg coordstar.s Description: The star, calculated from its coordinates. Y (rows) and X (cols) run from -8 to 8 for symmetry. To represent negative numbers, one's complement is used. This shortens the code to get the absolute coordinate value, but requires added code to skip the "positive zero" (after the "negative zero" $FF was already handled). For a few more details, see the comments in the source file. Comments: I started late (on 24th). Yes, that's my excuse :)
