All the quine challenges on this site are focused on byte count, or the characters themselves. This one is different. Your challenge is to write a program that produces output which has a code point sum identical to the source's code point sum.
To produce a code point sum:
- Find the values of the characters in the program's character set.
For example -FOO
in ASCII:F
= 70,O
= 79,O
= 79 - Add them all together.
Code point sum ofFOO
in ASCII:F
+O
+O
= 70+79+79 = 228.
An example of an ASCII sum quine would be if the source code was ABC
and the output was !!!!!!
. This is because the sum of the the ASCII values of the source (A
= 65, B
= 66, C
= 67, sum = 198) is the same as the sum of the ASCII values in the output (!
= 33, 33*6 = 198). BBB
would also be valid output, as would cc
.
Rules
- Your program must not be a reverse, shuffled, error, or any other type of "true" quine. To elaborate: If the output contains all the same characters as the source, it is invalid.
- Your program cannot use any errors/warnings from the compiler/interpreter as the output.
- Your program's source must use the same codepage as the output.
- Your program may use any codepage that was created before this challenge was.
- Your program's output must not contain any unprintable characters (e.g. ASCII 0 through 31, or above 127) aside from linefeeds and tabs.
- Standard loopholes apply.
- If the source and/or output has a trailing linefeed, it must be included in the code point sum.
- Compiler flags need to be included in the final byte count (score), but not the source's code point sum.
- The output/source may not be empty.
Scoring
Shortest answer in byte count (not code point sum) wins. Please use this header format answers:
# Jelly, 12 bytes, sum 56 (SBCS)
You can use this tool to calculate ASCII sums.
