And here are the current standing of the public pase, not much has happened, though Shawn was able to improve his own code a bit. Benny69 moved up to 4th place due to his improvements to DrillSergeant's code. Sounds like the hunt is on to improve Shawn's code.
Code:

Jooel --------- 182
1. Shawn --------- 182 (Shawn-185 was reduced by 3 strokes)
2. Shawn --------- 185 (confirmed)
3. Shawn --------- 213 (confirmed)
4. Benny69 ------- 216 (DrillSergeant-217 was reduced by 1 stroke)
5. DrillSergeant - 217
Jooel --------- 219
6. Maciep -------- 225 (confirmed)
7. Allen --------- 225 (Allen-256 was reduced by 21 strokes)
8. Richard H ----- 252 (confirmed)
9. Allen --------- 256 (confirmed)
10. Howard bullock 285 (confirmed)
11. Glenn Barnas -- 337 (confirmed)
It_took_my_meds 343 (does not pass validation due to not DIMming variables inside the UDF)
12. Jochen -------- 352 (confirmed)
13. Benny69-------- 448 (confirmed)
14. Krabourn ------ 651 (confirmed)

Cappy, that $ = right($,~) thing ... had to actually run it to figure it out. Its a shorter form of $ = right($,-1). Seems like this:

$ = right("cappy",~)

would return "appy"

That is brilliant.




Yes, brilliant. I havn't run it, but still, after you pointed it out, how could one possibly figure that out without having the kixtart source code?
Rogier, what the green heck did you do to find that one, asked Ruud??


Well, my deep respect to all of you.
I started thinking of reducing the mayan string array thing last week, but that was only wishful thinking for me

From the manual.

Code:
~ Performs a bit-wise mathematical negation (NOT) operation on a number.

which is ... ehhh .... ~ nothing, or ~ 0, resulting in -1

BRILLIANT !!!

[I for one keep forgetting that ~ is an operator in the mean time ]

rofl, maybe. Hey - were is Jooel's 182 code ? We should all start golfing that down - to shave much more than a few strokes here and there.

sorry boys.
the bachelor party went on a bit longer than they normally do.
I'm not fit to code anything yet but let me find the codes for you...

the 182 code:
Code:

Function m($i)
dim $e, $, $n
if $i=0+$i
do
$ = $i mod 20
do
$n = 3*($>4) + ($>1) + ($>)
$e = substr('-.:__|',1+$n,1) + $e
$ = $ - $n
until $=0
$m = $e + $m
$e = " "
$i = $i/20
until $i=0
else
$m=-1
do $m=$m+1 until $i=m($m)
EndFunction



and the 219:
Code:

Function m($)
dim $e, $i, $n
if $=0+$
do
$i = $ mod 20
$m = split(" . : .: :: -")[iif($i=0,5,$i mod 5)] + left('|||',$i/5) + $e + $m
$e = ' '
$ = $/20
until $=0
else
$i=split($)
$=1
for $n=-ubound($i) to 0
for $e=0 to 19
if $i[-$n]=m($e)
$m = $m + $ * $e
$ = $ * 20
EndFunction



and shawn, no matter how much you protest, the rules are clear.
as long as the code executes in the alloted time, it is fine.
this is not the first golf round when these type of codes are used.
in fact, way back on one golf round the tests were altered by individuals
so these type of codes didn't suffer so much time penalty.

and here is 176 code.
Code:

Function m($_)

dim $,$b,$c

for $b = 1 to 15
$c = split("- . : .: :: | " + $)
$ = $ + $c[$b] + "| "
next

for each $ in split($_)
$m = $m * 20 + ascan($c,$)
if $m<0
$m = $c[$_ mod 20]
if $_/20
$m = m($_/20) + " " + $m

EndFunction

hmmmm, are we were allowed to change the names of the parameters ?

Anyway - heres the thing Jooel - by submitting this brute-force kinda code, your basically spoiling the spirit of these games. Now going-forward - in order for anyone to compete with you (me included) - we're going to have to start writing more of this silly stuff.

Do the Perl golf tournaments have this same problem ?

Ok - here's some 173 code:

Code:

Function m($)

dim $a, $b, $c

for $b = 1 to 15
$c = split("- . : .: :: | " + $a)
$a = $a + $c[$b] + "| "
next

if $=0+$
$m = $c[$ mod 20]
if $/20
$m = m($/20) + " " + $m
endif
else
$m=-1
do $m=$m+1 until $=m($m)
EndFunction

I'm posting this 173 on behalf of Rogier (DrillSergeant) ...

Code:

;!
Function m($)

dim $a

if $=0+$
do
$a = $ mod 20
$m = trim(iif($a,left('.',$ mod 5 mod 2)+left('::',$ mod 5/2)+left('|||',$a/5),'-')+' '+$m)
$ = $ / 20
until $ = 0
else
$m=-1
do
$m=$m+1
until $=m($m)
EndFunction
;!

This is 167

This one I am submitting on behalf of me, Rogier and Benny ... especially Benny because he found the reduction ...

Code:

Function m($)

if $=0+$
do
;$a = $ mod 20
$m = trim(iif($ mod 20,left('.',$ mod 5 mod 2)+left('::',$ mod 5/2)+left('|||',$ mod 20/5),'-')+' '+$m)
$ = $ / 20
until $ = 0
else
$m=-1
do
$m=$m+1
until $=m($m)
EndFunction

I just want to recap the last three script submissions and credits - Jens will need this info when he validates all three scripts seperately to ensure standings ...

173 Code - Shawn
173 Code - Shawn & Rogier
167 Code - Shawn/Rogier and Benny
