This task has been flagged for clarification. Code on this page in its current state may be flagged incorrect once this task has been clarified. See this page's Talk page for discussion.

Task

The first line contains the number of lines to follow, followed by that number of lines of text on STDIN.

Write to STDOUT each line of input by passing it to a method as an intermediate step. The code should demonstrate these 3 things.

Sample input with corresponding output

Input

Output

Alternative code:

This program will read a number through STDIN... well, trough pipeline:

$ echo n | io

where "n" is the number of lines it will print.

When the total number of lines entered has been reached, it will display a message indicating that you must enter a number.

    if( !isdigit(*t) ) return 0;
    ++t;
  }
  return 1;
}
int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
   char s[100],r[10];
   int n=0;
   FILE *fp;
   
   fgets(s,100,stdin);  // input trough stdin.
   
   if( (fp = fopen("temporal.txt","r"))!=NULL){
      fgets(r,10,fp);
      n=atoi(r);
      if(n>0){
         --n;
         fclose(fp);
         fp=fopen("temporal.txt","w");
         sprintf(r,"%d",n);
         fputs(r,fp);
         fclose(fp);
         printf("%s\n",s);
      }else{
         fclose(fp);
         remove("temporal.txt");
         perror("I need a number of the lines here!\n");
      }

What is the data? (}. {.~ _ ". [: }: 0&{::) Because it has an odd number of verbs, this expresses a fork. And because {:: (fetch) is in the fork the right argument y is a vector of boxes. We know that the data has a number followed by some lines of text. Let's read the fork from left to right. The second verb, {. is "take" modified by the ~ "passive" adverb to swap arguments. Take uses a shape argument on left (x), and the data to take as y. Remembering the passive effect, the data to which take applies will be the beheaded vector of boxes---beheading removes the first line which is the number, and the fork to the right of {.~ computes the shape. Now looking at the fourth verb, ". (numbers) the default in case of error is _ (infinity meaning "all" when used along a shape dimension to take) and the data for numbers is the curtailed }: content of the first box (index origin 0). 0 is & (bonded also known as curried) to fetch. Curtailing removes the line feed. Since this gives a list of boxes, but we need to display literal data, raze "unboxes" one level of boxing. Good, if we have a list of boxed lines of input.

(<;.2)@:(1!:1) 3 (<;.2) is "< (box) ;. (cut) 2 . The 2 specifies the last item of the data as the fret, and to preserve the frets. (1!:1) 3 is "read stdin".

I chose to connect the parts into a single verb using @: (at).

With predefined verbs from standard profile we can write the simpler, more readable for native English speakers, and robust sentence which ensures a final linefeed fret and discards the frets with <;._2

exit@:0:@:(smoutput&>)@:(}. {.~ _ ". 0&{::)@:cutLF@:(1!:1) 3

Cheers! That's tacit j.

PARI/GP

This task is not possible to implement directly in GP: for input() to take a string the user would have to wrap it in quotes (and escape quotes and newlines). One must use PARI:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <pari/pari.h>

int main(void);
 
int
main()
{
  int i, n, s;
  GEN vec;
  
  // 1 MB stack, not using prime table
  pari_init(1000000, 0);
  
  scanf("%d", &n);
  GEN vec = cgetg(n+1, t_VEC);

  for (i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
    if (1 != scanf("%s", &s)) abort();
    gel(vec, i) = strtoGENstr(s);
  }

  pari_printf("%Ps", vec);
  return 0;
}

This assumes that both Stdin and Stdout are connected to a terminal.

import "io" for Stdin

var output = Fn.new { |lines| System.print(lines.join("\n")) }

var n = Num.fromString(Stdin.readLine())
if (!n || !n.isInteger || n < 1) Fiber.abort("Number of lines must be a positive integer.")
var lines = List.filled(n, "")
for (i in 0...n) lines[i] = Stdin.readLine()
System.print()
output.call(lines)

Output:

Sample input/output:

3
hello
hello world
Pack my Box with 5 dozen liquor jugs

hello
hello world
Pack my Box with 5 dozen liquor jugs

The input file must be redirected on the command line, for example: iotext <iotext.txt

string 0;

proc PrintLn(Str);      \"method" to print a line of text
char Str;
[Text(0, Str);
CrLf(0);
];

char Line(1000);
int  N, I, C;
for N:= 1 to IntIn(1) do
    [I:= 0;
    loop [repeat C:= ChIn(1) until C # $0D \CR\;
         if C = $0A \LF\ then quit;
         Line(I):= C;
         I:= I+1;
         ];
    Line(I):= 0;
    PrintLn(Line);
    ]

zkl

File ff.zkl:

numLines:=File.stdin.readln().strip().toInt();
text:=File.stdin.readln(numLines);

text.apply(File.stdout.write);

Output:

cat foo.txt | zkl ff
hello
hello world
Pack my Box with 5 dozen liquor jugs
