ok
i seem to have said, "we". So lets do this together :)

heres an example (code by Dave Burton, not by me)

int main(int b,char**i){long long n=B,a=I^n,r=(a/b&a)>>4,y=atoi(*++i),_=(((a^n/b)*(y>>T)|y>>S)&r)|(a^r);printf("%.8s\n",(char*)&_);}

clang -include stdio.h -include stdlib.h -Wall -Weverything -pedantic -DB=6945503773712347754LL -DI=5859838231191962459LL -DT=0 -DS=7 -o prog prog.c

try
./prog 1
./prog 2
./prog 3
...

Can you think of a way to add some lines of code to this that makes it more maintainable ?

if yes, then i think you proofed that adding code can reduce maintaince burden

thx

Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give
it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For
even the very wise cannot see all ends. -- Gandalf
