Just wondering, this challenge already exists on codegolf.SE, so what's to stop people from copying everything from there? — mbomb007‭ 2 months ago

@mbomb007 I imagine nothing. Some challenges may make sense to copy over as not everyone wants to use SE (some still have bitter feelings about it) However, I think people will have some incentive to be creative and make new challenges anyways. — moony‭ 2 months ago

It's quite funny how this is the first question, considering "Hello, World!" is the first thing most people do when they first start coding-- much alike the first question on Codidact Code Golf being "Hello, World!" — 22t‭ 2 months ago

Giving old challenges a new look makes sense to me. People who answered Somewhere Else and want to copy those answers here can (you own your content), but you might have also thought of better solutions since then, too. — Monica Cellio‭ 2 months ago

@mbomb007, mostly a matter of tradition more than anything. Hello world is more of a catalog type question than a serious competitive one. — Razetime‭ 2 months ago

Hello, World!

This pushes the string "Hello, World!" to the stack and automatically prints it.

Also, this is the first answer on the site! Woo!

Absolutely the shortest possible, no doubt about it. Try it online!. It won't work in the online one, copy it from there and paste it in the developer console if you are on chrome (as it uses the alert function). Please excuse my absolutely awful ascii art.

I also now see that this output isn't accepted (needs the comma and exclamation mark)... lol now it's time to figure out how I did this months ago so I can fix it ...

You can golf this pretty easily by removing all the whitespace. I'm not sure what restricted character set you've decided to program this under, since it has quotes and an x in it, both of which could surely be used elsewhere to make it shorter. — Jo King‭ about 2 months ago

Spent a good amount of time golfing this. I'm sure there's a few optimizations I've missed, but I don't understand the word "big" anymore.

Gah, I've just checked SE and they've got it down to 835. I guess I can't golf hard enough. — Corsaka‭ about 2 months ago

What optimisations is TIO missing? As far as I know, it is using the reference interpreter provided by the language's authors (which itself has a number of bugs to exploit). Also, the shortest on SE is 592 bytes — Jo King‭ about 2 months ago

Explanation

~~First~~ second answer of the.. entire site, actually. Nothing special. I don't think this can go shorter, but this is Raku, who actually knows. I made this post to (possibly) try and set a precedent for what a answer should look like. Obv you don't have to explain it, but it's nice.

My first RoadLang answer! And probably the first one on this site!

Removing any of the words says "Aight the lad's lost the plot", so I think this is the most minimal answer I can get here.

Thanks to Quintec for patching string parsing so that this works.

Apart from using deprecated gcc extensions, this is non-conforming/ill-formed C++ with several constraint violations. — Lundin‭ about 2 months ago

@Lundin Top line states that it's for gcc (which implies only for gcc). It's also conformant code, please read the standard before commenting. — Noodle9‭ about 2 months ago

How can you say that it relies on non-standard extensions while lecturing me about the standard at the same time? It's either, not both at once. — Lundin‭ about 2 months ago
