Write a program which creates a file named DICKS.HTML and writes "<html><body>DICKSDICKSDICKS</body></html>" inside.
Language with the shortest code wins.

GEE, WE HAVEN'T HAD THIS THREAD IN A WHILE.

This thread (still) sucks. And I'd urge everyone to properly encapsulate their dicks, perhaps using the GoF "Dick in a Box" pattern. You'll be glad you did, and so will she.

Did you mean

with open("Dicks.html","w") as f:

    f.write("<html><body>" + "DICKS"*3 + "</body></html>")

?

I just created the "dicksdicksdicks" programming language for exactly this purpose. In the dicksdicksdicks language, ANY source code will compile to a program that does exactly what you requested - including the empty source file. So I just made an implementation with a zero length source file.

I win :)

I'm surprised nobody has proposed a language that does this with no source file at all.

It has already been proposed.

In a language I'm currently designing:



“DICKS.HTML”,“w”→Φ→α▪

“<html><body>%s</body></html>∗n”→γ▪

“DICKS”·3→δ▪

αγδ→Π▪

Ξ←α▪

0→Ω▪

I don't know if you were being sarcastic, but I just finished the parser in Haskell.
I changed the multiplication operator to × and the escape character to ♯.
Now to write the compiler...

that's actually the buddhist symbol for peace

So? Are you saying that it wouldn't make a good multiplication symbol?

Name: Anonymous 2009-09-13 21:34

>>70
The swastika is a lot older than Buddhism, and isn't a symbol for peace. It's just a general auspicious thing.
Maybe you thought you were clever by mentioning it, but by now, this sort of thing is common knowledge, in large part because of people like you who think half-remembered trivia is impressive.
