The Challenge:

Given any input that can be typed on a keyboard, move the text along by N chars.

Here is the QWERTY keyboard to be used. You can ignore the modifier keys (Shift, Caps, Enter, Delete and Tab). Once you reach one side (for example |) loop back round, so | goes to Q if N = 1.

enter image description here

Spaces do not have to be moved along (they go back round to space as you skip modifiers). If shift was used to type the character (e.g. ! and @) the changed character should also be typed using shift (i.e. ! goes to @ not 2 if N = 1).

UK keyboards are different to this, but please use this so that we can compare.

Input:

Any sentence that can be typed on the above keyboard followed by a positive integer. There is no maximum to the size of this integer.

Output:

The same sentence, shifted along by N.

Examples:

My name is Tim 3
?o .f/y [g I[/
Hello World 7
Spgge Oe[g;
I Wi5h I h4d b3773r C@d3ing ski{{s 3
{ T[8l { l7h ,6006u N%h6[.k g'[QQg

This is code golf, so shortest code wins.

  • \$\begingroup\$ Can we assume that N<= 13 as you will need to shift at most 13 in order to return to the original character? \$\endgroup\$

Readable version with whitespace, includes, etc:

#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

char* t = " @A$%^*a)_(~.=/z-234567890\"'>`?Z#SNVFRGHJOKL:<MP{WTDYIBECUX]q\\&=1snvfrghjokl;,mp[wtdyibecux}Q|!";
int l, d, k;

void f(char* s) {
    l = strlen(s);
    for( ; s[--l] - 32; );
    d = atoi(s + l);
    s[l] = 0;
    for ( ; d--; ) {
        for (k = l; k--; s[k] = t[s[k] - 32]);
    }
    puts(s);
}

The code pretty much speaks for itself. Just a lookup table that maps from each character to the next character, which is applied the given number of times. Much of the code is actually for parsing the number out of the input.

  • \$\begingroup\$ @Ypnypn You can use undeclared functions in C. So the includes are not needed for it to build. It typically gives compiler warnings, but I've been told that this is allowed as long as it builds and runs. \$\endgroup\$ Commented May 17, 2015 at 23:39

Baseline, almost ungolfed, used to create the shifted words in the question.

x=input().split()
n=int(x[-1])
x=' '.join(x[:-1])
l=['`1234567890-=','qwertyuiop[]\\',"asdfghjkl;'",'zxcvbnm,./', '~!@#$%^&*()_+','QWERTYUIOP{}|','ASDFGHJKL:"','ZXCVBNM<>?',' ']
y=''
for i in x:
 for q in l:
  if i in q:y+=q[(q.index(i)+n)%len(q)]
print(y)

Explanation:

x=input().split()    # Get input
n=int(x[-1])         # Get N from input
x=' '.join(x[:-1])   # Get the words from input
                     # Create list of letters

l=['`1234567890-=', 'qwertyuiop[]\\',
   "asdfghjkl;'",   'zxcvbnm,./',
   '~!@#$%^&*()_+', 'QWERTYUIOP{}|',
   'ASDFGHJKL:"',   'ZXCVBNM<>?',
   ' ']

y=''                 # Blank string
for i in x:          # Loop through letters in input
    for q in l:      # Loop through items in list
        if i in q:   # Is letter of input in item of list?
            y+=q[                          # Append letter to y
                 (q.index(i)+n)            # locate the letter in item, and add N
                               %len(q)]    # % is modulus, loop to beginning if big
print(y)             # Print out the offset word.

JavaScript (ES6), 200 216

Using template strings, the newlines are significant and counted.

Note about replace: the two snippets string.split('x').map(w=>...) and string.replace(/[^x]+/g,w=>...) are equally valid ways to execute a function for each part in a string, using a separator. Using a newline as a separator is handy as the replace regexp becomes /.+/g, because the dot match any non-newline. And using templated strings the newlines have no extra cost.

f=(t,d)=>[for(c of t)`~!@#$%^&*()_+
1234567890-=
QWERTYUIOP{}|
qwertyuiop[]\\
ASDFGHJKL:"
asdfghjkl;'
ZXCVBNM<>?
zxcvbnm,./`.replace(/.+/g,r=>(p=r.indexOf(c))<0?0:q=r[(p+d)%r.length],q=c)&&q].join('')

// less golfed
x=(t,d)=>
  [for(c of t)
    '~!@#$%^&*()_+ 1234567890-= QWERTYUIOP{}| qwertyuiop[]\\ ASDFGHJKL:" asdfghjkl;\' ZXCVBNM<>? zxcvbnm,./'
    .split(' ')
    .map(r=>(p=r.indexOf(c))<0?0:q=r[(p+d)%r.length],q=c)&&q
  ].join('')
  
// TEST

out=x=>O.innerHTML+=x+'\n'

;[['Hello World',7,],['My name is Tim',3],['I Wi5h I h4d b3773r C@d3ing ski{{s', 3]]

_32ff^ e# XOR each character of a copy with 32.
