JStars Author: pdw Category: Christmas Challenge System: Portable Language: J Len source code: 23 Len exe file: 23 Len code only: 23 Instructions: Download and install from https://www.jsoftware.com Then run it with `j9.4/bin/jconsole jstars.j` (Or, using Windows, drag and drop the file on top of `jconsole.exe` I suppose) Description: This program uses the equation x²-y²≡3 (mod 6) to find the locations of the stars. And no, this is not obfuscated. This is just what J code looks like ;) Perhaps try: load 'trace' trace '3=6|-/~*:i.19' Comments: The code uses an 'echo' verb to turn it into a "program", as required by the rules. If you're typing at the REPL, you can omit it and save four bytes.
