Minecraft 1.12 will be released tomorrow, so let's celebrate!

Write code that takes in a non-negative integer N which represents the number of items of something in Minecraft. Output it in a way more helpful to players, giving the number of chests, stacks, and items N is equivalent to. Use the format

XcYsZi

where

  • X is the number of chests you can completely fill with N items,
  • Y is the number of stacks you can fill with the items remaining after filling chests,
  • Z if the number of items remaining after filling chests and stacks.

Note that:

  • 64 items fit in a stack. (We'll ignore items that stack to 16 or don't stack.)
  • 27 stacks fit in a chest. (These are single chests, not double chests.)

So it would never make sense if Y is more than 26 or if Z is more than 63.

A caveat with the format is that if there is zero of something, that term is not printed.

  • So, for example, if Y were zero and X and Z nonzero, the format would look like XcZi.

  • Likewise if Y and Z were zero and X nonzero, the format would be Xc.

  • The exception here is when N is zero. Then 0i is the output rather than an empty string.

You can assume all N items are of the same type, hence all stackable.

You may not output a list or tuple of three numbers. You must give a string with the exact "csi" notation, in that order, with no spaces or commas.

For reference, here's a chest completely filled with stacks of items:

Minecraft single chest filled with 27 stacks of diamonds

Testcases

0 -> 0i

2 -> 2i
62 -> 62i

64 -> 1s

66 -> 1s2i
127 -> 1s63i
128 -> 2s
129 -> 2s1i
200 -> 3s8i
512 -> 8s
1337 -> 20s57i
1664 -> 26s
1727 -> 26s63i
1728 -> 1c

5183 -> 2c26s63i
5184 -> 3c
5200 -> 3c16i
9999 -> 5c21s15i
385026 -> 222c22s2i
1000000000 -> 578703c19s

The shortest code in bytes wins.

d                        - divmod (whole divisions and remainder)
      27                 - literal 27
    1¦                   - apply to index 1 (the whole division from above)
   d                     - divmod
        F                - flatten into a single list (of three items i.e. [(n/64)/27, (n/64)%27, n%64]
            “csi”        - literal ['c','s','i']
           ¥             - last two links as a dyad:

                 F       - flatten (from list of three lists to one list)
                  ḟ0     - filter discard zeros

                         - implicit print (smashed together representation, so [578703,'c',19,'i'] prints as 578703c19i)

Try it online! Includes all test cases except the last, in case it overloaded TIO. Edit: Saved 7 bytes thanks to @MartinEnder. Explanation:

.+
$*i

Convert the input number to unary using is.

i{64}
s

64 items fill one stack.

s{27}
c

27 stacks fill one chest.

(.)\1*
$.&$1

Convert any chests, stacks or remaining items to decimal, but leaving the type as a suffix.

^$
0i

If the input was zero, make the result 0i.

  • \$\begingroup\$ How does it work in the 0 input case, and why does that also print a trailing newline while other inputs don't? \$\endgroup\$ Jun 7, 2017 at 8:32
  • \$\begingroup\$ @JonathanAllan: If nothing has been printed, 05AB1E implicitly prints the top of the stack at the end of execution (with newline). For-loops breaks lists apart and pushes the elements to the stack, so any item not printed will be added to the stack. At the end of the loop in the 0 case 0i will be on the top of the stack (0s and 0c will be under it) and will be printed. \$\endgroup\$

Try it online!

Input is taken in unary 1s at the end of the program right before the i.
Ex:

.../si/s|cs/c|ci/c/mcl0sl0<--input here-->i

You can also use an x in place of 8 1s as a side affect of golfing the program. There is a wrapper for easier testing below.

Testing wrapper: Try it online!

Ungolfed: Try it online!

It does 2 divmods, one to separate into chests, stacks, and items, then again to convert to decimal. I could have it convert input from decimal as well, but I would also have to change all of the symbol names and add additional logic to keep it from breaking, so I'm not going to do that. Besides, I think unary is a recognized standard input for ///.

Line breaks for readability, not counted in byte total. Tested on MS SQL Server 2012.

EDIT 1: Changed multiple REPLACE to IIF to save 5 bytes. Final REPLACE still necessary because STR annoyingly pads with spaces to 10 chars.

EDIT 2: Fixed to follow the rules by using the approved input type for SQL, values stored in a named table. This cost bytes for the FROM, also requires SELECT instead of PRINT. Recovered 2 bytes by dropping an unnecessary parens.

This hits a bunch of powershell's pain points very precisely.

[math]::Floor is required for this as PS does Bankers Rounding by default.

the PS Ternary also takes up a load of bytes compared to other languages, to do a simple null coallescence ($a="This";$a?$a:"That" or "This"?:"That") we need to do (($a="This"),"That")[$a-ne$null]

then we need to use all of these twice, and also add in another set of brackets in some places due to powershell's default operation order.
