Oct 11, 2019 at 17:42 comment added jaaq @AC well I guess that one's the winner. You should submit it as an additional answer though.
Sep 18, 2019 at 21:15 comment added A C @jaaq unfortunately, it's still longer than the boring old zip+mime approach, which comes in under 300 B (and has imports... ick!)
Sep 18, 2019 at 7:21 comment added jaaq wow, nice! I didn't get that at all! Good catch!

Sep 16, 2019 at 2:21 comment added A C ...and you can save another ~ 30 B if you then get rid of all the asterisk expressions (into vars) and remove the pluses making a single string, which you can then eval over
Sep 15, 2019 at 20:13 comment added A C You could keep repeating your manual RLE... ~ 544 B: w,s,d,r=' *.#';m='--';n=m*5;A=d*2;B=d*3;C=d*4;D=d*5;E=d*6;F=r*2;G=r*3;H=r*4;I=r*6;J=r*42;K=w*10;L=w*11;M=w*12;N=w*13;O=w*15;P=w*4;Q=w*8;R=d+r;S=r+R+R;T=B+r;U=r+T;V=r+A;W=r+d+F+T+E;X=r+C;Y=r+E+F+D;Z=R+A+X+V;a=r+P+r+n+r;b=J+P+r;c=F+A+X+X;e=b+n+r for i in[O+s*12,O+H+C+r+d,N+V+G+D+F+C,N+G+d*7+I+w*14+G+M+G,w*16+d*11+O+U+K+U,O+F+s+r*7+w*17+S+K+S,M+H+s*7+I+N+S+K+S,L+T+s*3+d+s*4+d+s+G+C+K+U+K+U,L+C+s*10+F+D+L+G+M+G,L+C+s*4+P+s*5+C,N+H+Q+H,L+I+Q+I,r*62,U+E+W+W+r+d+F+m*9+r,r*43+m*9+r,V+X+X+c+c+r*21,e,r+D+Y+Y+r+E+a,e,r+Z+F+Z+F+Z+a,b+r*11,]:print(i)
Sep 15, 2019 at 19:46 comment added ovs The last line is 3 bytes shorter as [*map(print,[...])]
Sep 13, 2019 at 14:03 comment added spyr03 -9 bytes if you combine the single characters into one string. w,s,d,r=' *.#' m='--'

Sep 13, 2019 at 12:44 comment added Keeta - reinstate Monica I don't know python, but can you make m equal two dashes since every usage of dash is an even number? If so, you can save about 5 characters.

Sep 13, 2019 at 11:17 comment added jaaq Well, then I'd count the input towards the bytes used, since it'd defeat the entire challenge. I just wanted to play a bit with the 'programmers should never redo what is already out there' trope. Sorry if my mentality of just having fun in this environment bothers you, I didn't mean to at all!
Sep 13, 2019 at 11:15 comment added ar4093 Then just take the text as input and use print(input())
Sep 13, 2019 at 11:14 comment added jaaq Yes, I agree; but since op said many people, including me and my friend, are interested about how to solve this problem within the fewest characters, I thought it might be worth a good laugh; which kind of fits the recreational programming theme of this post and parts of this site.

Sep 13, 2019 at 11:11 comment added ar4093 I'm pretty sure the point about standard loopholes is that they apply even when not explicitly mentioned.
