>We do not recommend submitting systemd source code to the IOCCC, if nothing else because that code is likely to exceed the source code size limit. This isn't to say that another highly compact and obfuscated replacement of init would not be an interesting submission.


I love it


My favorite is https://www.ioccc.org/1998/banks.c a flight simulator! So cool, the imports worked out nicely too.


One of the coolest entries I saw was the square root calculator which was shaped like a square box and had white spaces inside the box in a shape of square root symbol.

That one was preaty neat.
