> write a program to list them all!
Me: Is it OK if it doesn't print until it's done?
Interviewer: Uh, sure, why not?
Me: while(1){}
Me: Finished. This produces the exact desired output of the program you specified.
Interviewer: GTFO.
- quickthrower2 4y agowhile(1) {} is the universal program to do anything. You can then optimise performance later. Interestingly in Haskell the only pure program of type variable “a” where a means any type at all is the one that never quits: myProg: a myProg = myProg Which amounts to the same thing: it can do anything - produce any type - but it takes literally forever.
