/prog/ challenge (can /prog/ beat /code/)

OK (http://4-ch.net/code/kareha.pl/1105183272/ - Same challenge, different board, different EXPERTS)


Alright people who know how to tell there computer what to do and how to get there... I bring you a challenge from the interweb.

THE 4K CODE CHALLENGE

Objective: To create the most productive/useful code that as source code is no larger than 4 kilobytes (4096 bytes). There is no restrictions as to what your code does, or what language it is used in.

Rules:

    * The code must be yours, and you must be willing to give your code out to the public domain.
    * You must state EXACTLY what your code does. If it is malicious you must state what it does/exploit.
    * There is no restriction on what language, however markup languages are not allowed. Javascript/VBScript are, and any HTML required to perform the task is not counted towards the byte tally however objects calling to Javascript/VBScript do.
    * Common standard libraries (.h files, javabeans, perl modules etc) are allowed and dont count towards the byte tally.
    * You can use as many seperate files in your source code as you wish.
    * If you code requires to be compiled to run, it must be able to compile without a problem. For C and other languages that require a makefile, these will not go towards the byte tally.
    * Any other data in the form of databases, information etc that isn't a part of the code also does not count towards the byte tally.
    * If your program requires parameters to begin, you must state what they do.

Gentlemen, START YOUR TEXTEDITORS

int main(int argv, char *argv[]) {
  int r;
  for (r = 0; *argv; r += !!system(*++argv));
  exit(r);
}

Or OMG OPTIMIZED:


#include<stdlib.h>
main(int c,char**v){int e;for(e=0;*v;e+=!!system(*++v));exit(e);}
