obfuscated BooK <p>Oh yes, the French <a href="http://paris.pm.org/aplusplus.html">$A++</a> obfuscation contest is still raging! Here is a try with a really restricted character set:</p> <code>s]]aAaa]|s~a~A^e~e|s}aa}BC^ih}e|eval </code> <p>This was as fun as writing french without using the letter 'e' (as did <a href="http://www.themodernword.com/scriptorium/perec.html">Georges Perec</a> in <I><a href="http://www.amazon.fr/exec/obidos/ASIN/207071523X/">La Disparition</a></i> --translated as <i><a href="http://shop.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?isbn=1860460984">A</a> <a href="http://dannyreviews.com/h/A_Void.html">Void</a></i> by Gilbert Adair)...</p> <p>Here I only used those ASCII characters whose 7^th and 6^th bits are respectively set to 0 and 1, and more precisely between ASCII 64 and 127. (but DEL is not precisely the kind of char you want to use for this...)</p>
