Fabrice Bellard is smart enough that he can probably work directly with obfuscated code without it having to go through a separate translation process. The "obfuscated" source could in fact be the original :)
- vanderZwan 14y agoCould that be a byproduct of doing much assembly?
- nimrody 14y agoWhile this may seem like a joke when referring to this size of code, some people actually write this way: http://nsl.com/papers/origins.htm http://nsl.com/papers/origins.htm (Arthur Whitney's initial implementation of "J")
- derekp7 14y agoThe example I use is: is it easier to read "a + b", or "a plus b"? In many cases, what looks like obfuscation is just shorthand notation.
- AnthonBerg 14y agoThe appropriate counterexample here is which is easier to read, "a plus b" or "aplusb"? :)
- qznc 14y agoThat is not "obfuscated", but rather J-style. The rationale is: To write a J interpreter/compiler you need to know J. If you know J, then J-style C is easy to work with.
