Print every printable ASCII character without using it

Question

In a programming language of your choice, write 95 programs, each of which outputs a different one of the 95 printable ASCII characters without that character occurring anywhere in the program.

For example, if your language was Python, your program that outputs the character P might be

print(chr(80))

because P has ASCII code 80. This program is valid because P never appears in the source code. However, for the program that outputs lowercase p, something like

print(chr(112))

would be invalid because, while it does print p, p is present in the code. A valid program could be

exec(chr(112)+'rint(chr(112))')

which prints p but does not contain p.

Your goal is to make each of your 95 programs as short as possible. Your score is the sum of the character lengths of all your programs.

If for any reason you are unable to write valid programs for some characters, you may mark those characters as "Did Not Program" or DNP, and omit programs for them entirely. This way syntactically strict languages will be able to compete.

The winning answer is the answer that has the lowest score of the set of answers that have the fewest DNP's.

Rules

• The source code of all of your programs may only contain printable ASCII plus tabs and newlines, all of which are counted as one character. (Because in a different encoding it would be easy to omit characters that don't exist!)

  • Note: This rule seems necessary but there are many languages with different encodings and I'm sure it'd be cool to see the answers for them. Therefore you can break this rule, you can use whatever characters you want, but then your answer becomes non-competitive, it cannot win.

• The programs must be actual, full programs, according to your language's standard conventions. Functions and REPL snippets are not allowed.

• Each program's output should go to stdout or your language's accepted alternative.

• Programs should not prompt for or require input. (If prompting for input is inherent to your language, that's ok.)

• Programs should be deterministic, finite in run time, and independent. e.g. it shouldn't matter if one is run in a folder separate from the other programs.

• A program's output should be the precise printable ASCII character it corresponds to, optionally followed by a single trailing newline, nothing more, nothing less.

Be sure to include information on all 95 (ideally) programs in your answer, as well as your score and any DNP's. You don't have to list all programs that follow a simple pattern like "print(chr(80)), print(chr(81)), print(chr(82))..." but make sure you're sure they all would work and that your score is added correctly.

For reference, here are the 95 printable ASCII your programs must output:

 !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~

Answer 1

R, 1040 bytes

-2 bytes by using as.name.

The credit for this answer should go to digEmAll, who did 499(!) bytes better than my version (left below). Most characters are printed by using the octal representation, e.g. cat('\041') prints character number 41 in octal, or 33 in decimal, i.e. !. There are a couple of minor additional tricks, explained in more detail in my original answer below. For the characters ct, use as.name instead of cat; for the characters () redefine the function ? which has a special syntax and doesn't need brackets.

The solution for a is

`c\141t`('\141')

since c\141t in backticks is interpreted as cat.

The other notable exception is the character \, for which we have to use the more standard cat(intToUtf8(92)).

Original version:

R, 1541 bytes

Most non-alphanumeric characters are of the form cat(intToUtf8(33)). The intToUtf8 part can be made shorter for most alphanumeric characters. The main issue is the characters cat(), which I will handle last.

For digits, simple operations like cat(1+1) work.

For letters, the shortest seems to be to use the constants letters and LETTERS (the alphabet) whenever possible, e.g. cat(LETTERS[1]) for A. This doesn't work for the characters LETRSletrs, for which we move to the slightly longer cat(toupper("l")) or cat(tolower("S")). For elr we have to revert to cat(intToUtf8(101)) and the like.

The code for the space can be made shorter with cat('',''), because cat will by default add spaces between strings (here two empty strings).

The brackets () are annoying: not using them seems to disallow calling functions. Here I used a standard R golfing technique, redefining some unary functions which have special syntax: cat(intToUtf8(40)) becomes

`?`=cat;`!`=intToUtf8;?!40

Finally, the letters cat. We need the cat() function, otherwise R will add some fluff; for example letters[1] or print(letters[1]) outputs [1] "a" instead of a. We'll need two distinct workarounds.

The function write is usually used to write to a file, but can be made to write to STDOUT: write(letters[1],'') works for a and c. Unfortunately, that still doesn't work for t. I almost gave up here...

Let's take a step back. The reason R adds [1] by default when printing is that most objects are of a vector type (here, a vector of length 1). The main exceptions are functions; in particular, calling for the body() or args() of a function doesn't add anything, but I couldn't find a way to use this. There are however internal non-vector types, such as promises, expressions and symbols (the latter are also called names), so a solution is to use as.name: as.name("t") converts the string to an object name, and outputs it at just t. I also used this for c, since as.name(letters[3]) is shorter than write(letters[3],'') (but we still need write for a).

We now need to find a way of creating the string "t", but cannot use letters, tolower or intToUtf8. The best I could come up with is as.name(rawToChar(as.raw(116))).

Answer 3

Fission, 455 bytes

Most programs are 5 bytes long and of the following form:

  R'!_O
! R'"_O
" R'#_O
...

These work simply by creating a right-going atom with R, setting its mass to a character one greater than the one we want print with 'X, decrementing it with _ and then printing it with O, which also destroys the atom and terminates the program.

There are a few exceptions. ' requires a two-line program:

+> vLR+
O/;

And there are the following exceptions using single-line programs:

C R'B+O
K R'J+O
O R'P_!*
Q R'P+O
R O_S'L
T R'S+O
` Ra_O
a Rb_O
b Rc_O
...
y Rz_O
z Ry+O
{ Rz+O
~ R'}+O

Explanation for these (not in order):

• Lower-case letters actually set the atom's mass to their character code without requiring the use of ', so we can actually save a byte on all lower-case letters and the two adjacent characters:

  ` Ra_O
  a Rb_O
  b Rc_O
  ...
  y Rz_O
  z Ry+O
  { Rz+O
  

  That's 4 bytes each.

• For ~, we can't use the next larger character, so we use the previous one and increment it: R'}+O. We also do this for _ to avoid using it in the code, i.e. R'^+O. We also do this for each of CKQT, because otherwise the corresponding DLRU in the code would create another, unwanted atom. These are still 5 bytes.
• For O, we can't use O for printing. Hence we use !. But this doesn't destroy the atom, so we need to terminate the program explicitly: R'P_!*. That's 6 bytes.
• For R, we start with a left-going atom and reverse the code: O_S'L. Still 5 bytes.

• Finally, there's ' which is by far the trickiest one. The shortest I've found is 11 bytes:

  +> vLR+
  O/;
  

  R and L both create an atom (initially with mass 1). The right-going one's mass is incremented twice to 3 (note that the grid wraps around) and stored inside the fission reactor >. The fission reactor can now be used for division by 3 (as opposed to the default of 2).

  Meanwhile, the left-going atom gets its value set to v (118). When it now hits the Fission reactor, it is split into two parts, one with mass 39 (') going south and one with mass 79 (O) going north. Since the grid wraps around, they both hit the ;. The O atom is deflected onto the ; where it is destroyed. The ' is deflected onto the O which (as usual) prints the character and destroys the atom.

dc, 314 287 286 bytes

Every character save for '5' and 'P' can be output via xxP where xx is the ASCII code point. 32P, 65P, 112P, etc. For 32-99, excepting 53 ('5') and 80 ('P'), that's 198 bytes. 100-126 gives us an additional 108 bytes, subtotal 306 bytes. Thanks to @Deliot for making me realize I'm sane... dc reserves the words/digits A-F for base >10 input, and doesn't really do any checks relating to inputting a digit beyond the scope of the input radix. This doesn't seem to work with cygwin's dc, but does with Darwin's and Ubuntu's: dc still interprets the number as decimal, but replaces A-F digits with 10-15 including a carry. So A0 becomes 100, AF becomes 115, etc. This adds 81 bytes for a subtotal of 279.

xxa converts a value on the stack to a single character, and n will print it, so that takes care of 'P' - 80an with an additional 4 bytes, subtotal 310 283.

For '5' we can rely on UCHAR_MAX overflow. 53+256=309, which has no 5s in it, so 309P it is use the same A-F behavior with 4DP (thanks @Joe), add 4 3 bytes for a total of 314 287 286.

• to print \ I called a shell script using e (the only non pure sed program)

The general form is:

Like 33 emit for !.

Exceptions:

m -> 109 EMIT
t -> 116 EMIT

Unfortunately, using . prints a space at the end. If it were usable, I could save 10 bytes, one for each digit 0-9. They would've been printed using these:

( : CHR$40OUT A$?A$
) : CHR$41OUT A$?A$
0 : ?.
1 : ?!.
2 : ?1+1
3 : ?2+1
Other digits: Continue pattern of 2 and 3
? : PRINT CHR$(63)
C : ?HEX$(12)
H : ?ChR$(72)
R : ?CHr$(82)

Answer 8

Add++, 505 bytes

Almost all of the programs have the format

+<char code>
H

Try it online!

With the exception of 3, the programs that generate "5", "+" and "H", which are, respectively

+4
+1
O

Try it online!

x:43
H

Try it online!

+72
h

Try it online!

How they work:

• Most work by setting that active variable to their charcode, and H converts numbers to characters when outputting
• "5" works simply by adding \$4\$ and \$1\$ and outputting the numerical result.
• "+" works by setting the variable explicitly, rather than adding the value
• "H" works by using h, which outputs the same result as H, without a trailing newline

The bytecount was calculated using this program.

Answer 9

33, 539 bytes, 3 DNP

Most programs take the form of: <Number>cktp, so I'll list the programs that are different:

The digit 0:

Since the accumulator is initialised to 0, I can just use o for it.

The digit 1:

Adding 1 to the accumulator isn't an option, so I evaluate 3 - 2 instead: 3c2mo

The digits 2 and 3:

Repeatedly adding 1 to the accumulator is shorter than printing the character code, so 1aao and 1aaao are used

The digit 4:

Repeatedly adding 2 to the accumulator works here: 2aao

The digit 5:

5 is the only number whose decimal representation in ASCII contains itself. What I can do instead is add 2 and 3: 2c3ao

The digit 6:

Double 3: 3aao

The digits 7 and 9:

These work much the same way as 5: 3c4ao and 5c4ao

The digit 8:

Double 4: 4aao

The letter c:

To get the number from the counter into the accumulator, I use c. This is replaceable with a, so there is very little problem there: 99aktp

The letters k, t, and p:

It is not possible to get a character into the source string and print it without these letters, so that's 3 DNP's.

Answer 10

Pyth, 285 bytes

Most characters are just C<codepoint in decimal>: <space> (C32)-c (C99) are 3 characters each, d (C100)-~ (C126) are 4 characters each, for a base count of 3*68+4*27=312 bytes.

Exceptions

space: d           (-2)
    ": N           (-2)
    0: Z           (-2)
  1-9: h0 ... h8   (-9, -1 each)
    C: r\c1        (+1)
    a: hG          (-1)
  d-j: @G3 ... @G9 (-7, -1 each)
    k: @GT         (-1)
    y: ePG         (-1)
    z: eG          (-2)

Total from exceptions: -26 bytes, for a grand total of 286 bytes.

Answer 11

Reg (a.k.a. Unofficial Keg), 221 bytes

All programs here follow the pattern:

<character+1>;

However, there are some exceptions:

• Reg has 25 characters that are recognized as instructions. Therefore, they have to be escaped. These are:

!   Pushes the length of the stack onto the stack
:   Duplicates the last item on the stack
_   Removes the last item on the stack
,   Prints the last item on the stack as a character
.   Prints the last item on the stack as an integer
?   Gets input from the user
'   Left shifts the stack
"   Right shifts the stack
~   Pushes a random number onto the stack
^   Reverses the stack
$   Swaps the top two items on the stack
#   Starts a comment
|   Branches to the next section of a structure
\   Escapes the next command, and pushes it as a string
&   Gets/sets the register value
@   Define/call a function
+   Pops x and y and pushes y + x
-   Pops x and y and pushes y - x
*   Pops x and y and pushes y * x
/   Pops x and y and pushes y / x
%   Pops x and y and pushes y % x
<   Pops x and y and pushes y < x
>   Pops x and y and pushes y > x
=   Pops x and y and pushes y == x
;   Decrement the top of the stack

{}[]() also needs escaping.

Length = 2*95+25+6=221B

Answer 12

Knight, 489 characters

Not a terribly interesting challenge for Knight. The general scheme is O A<ascii encoding>. This leaves three interesting cases: O, A, and digits.

• Coincidentally, the only number which needs to be fixed is 5. So instead of O A53, we do O A+9 44.
• The O is a DNP, as it's the only way to do output. (Technically DUMP can too, but it doesnt output only its argument.)
• The A one is a bit interesting; it's not immediately obvious that it's not possible. However, the only way to get strings that you didnt write in the source code is either (1) convert true/false/null/integers to a string or (2) use ASCII. FALSE almost does it, except it converts to the lower-case false, not FALSE. So, A is also DNP.

Answer 13

Japt, 150 bytes (59 characters completed)

A non-competitive work in progress (36 "DNP"s currently)
(I will be doing all 95 characters)

Oh, I'm enjoying this! :) This is the sort of challenge ETH, Oliver & I would have had great fun collaborating on back in the day.

Note that I have deliberately opted for a non-competitive solution to allow me to use non-ASCII characters and, therefore, some Japt trickery in places.
Being restricted to ASCII-only makes this challenge pretty trivial in Japt - every character (bar 5 & d) can be done in 3-4 bytes at most with Japt's method for converting character codes to strings.
I do plan to take another pass over this eventually to add an alternative set of ASCII-only solutions, hopefully more creative than that. But, equally, I may not ever get around to it!

Answer 14

Pip, 388 389 383 bytes

Most characters are computed using the Chr operator with their ASCII codes. Digits are (mostly) computed by incrementing the previous digit with U. Lowercase letters are (mostly) computed by indexing into z, the lowercase alphabet, since this is shorter for a few of them and breaks even for most of the rest. Here are the other exceptions:

• s is a builtin for space
• i is a builtin for 0
• o is a builtin for 1
• AZ@2 indexes into the builtin uppercase alphabet for C, avoiding the Chr operator
• Ch is shorter for d than z@3
• z@t is shorter for k than z@10
• C122 avoids using z for z

Answer 15

jq, 991 bytes

Most characters, 8*80=640 bytes

For most characters, the shortest solution is simple. For instance, A is produced by the following program:

"\u0041"

This pattern is used for the following 80 characters:

 !#$%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[]^_`abcdefghijkmopqrstvwxyz{|}~

Digits, 3*10=30 bytes

We can easily use arithmetic to produce digits using 3 bytes each, like

1-1

and

3-2

and

1+1

and

1+2

and

2+2

and

2+3

and so on

" and \, 12*2=24 bytes

Since the usual pattern of "\u00xx" contains these characters, we can't use it here. Instead, we use the implode filter to construct a string from an array of codepoints. For " it looks like so:

[32]|implode

Flags, 2*10+3*85=275 bytes

By default, jq runs its program once per input value. To ensure the program outputs exactly one character, this must be avoided using either the -n or -s flag, adding two bytes to each program. Most programs don't care which, but one or the other is needed.

Additionally, output is usually written as json, meaning any string we output gets surrounded by double quotes. Thus for all programs except the 10 that output numbers, we need another flag to tell it not to do that, meaning we're using -rn (or -rs) for those programs, adding yet another byte. .

u, 8 bytes, uses -n flag

We can't use the usual pattern for u. However, since we need either -n or -s anyway, assuming a null input from -n is free. We can use that with string formatting and slicing:

@sh[1:2]

n and l, 7*2=14 bytes, uses -n flag

We can modify the above approach to produce n and l, saving one byte each over the "\u00xx" approach, since the flag is there anyway:

@sh[:1]

and

@sh[3:]

       o  output tilde

(modified code, it wraps around)

~6¹:00go

Answer 17

FerNANDo, 1786 (19x94) bytes (1 DNP)

Did not program  (space).

The programs follow a pattern. The first one (!) is as follows:

b a
a a b a a a a b

This sets b to 1 (a is by default 0), and then outputs the ASCII character represented by the binary 00100001 (constructed using a and b). This can be repeated for any ASCII character using the same length of source code. To make the programs that print a and b, use the same code but name the variables c and d instead:

a:

d c
c d d c c c c d

b:

d c
c d d c c c d c

Every program is compiled by using this syntax:

add <decimal-ascii-code>

Try it online!

The exception to that is h, which is this code instead (the other one contained an h):

set mask
sub 152
put

Then, compile it to an SBIN file and run (those are all 3 bytes, so the score is calculated as 3 * 94 + 1 * 3 = 285 B.) Note that the SBIN file is the real program, not the pre-assembly syntax shown here.

Answer 20

Pushy, 267 bytes

This answer takes advantage of the many output commands available.

• Most programs are in the format <char code>" or <char code>', which print the character with that char code.

• 0: Z#

• 5: 4h#

• The first ten letters of the uppercase alphabet are printed using <index>Q, where <index> is the letter's 0-based index in the alphabet: 0Q, 1Q, 2Q... 9Q, TQ.

• All letters in the lowercase alphabet are pritned using <index>q, apart from of course q, which is printed using the first method.

´ does cost 2 bytes, but for a sequence like this, its convenient, and works out to be "as good as or shorter" for encoding nearly all number literals with values greater than 15. We can even cheat here and there with some values due to the way that the operation works. For example, the program that outputs 5 is written as 4´dk@ instead of 5´3k@, using the literal 13 instruction (4*10+13 vs 5*10+3). Only values that are a multiple of 10 (4X vs 4´0)^(†) or that can be constructed using two values <16 and one basic math operation (+-*/%^)^(‡) are cheaper without using ´.

The only one that gave me more than a moment's pause was k, as without k there's no way to convert a number to a character. I can't even use reflection to write it into the grid. But I can extract one from a string! a´2E3%@ pulls word 102 out of the dictionary ("back") and slices out its 3rd index ("k") and prints it.

Python3, 2646 characters + 7 DNP

In Python3.7.1, the following program code returns all 95 printable-ascii characters on each line using the following format starting with the empty space " " character for 32, and ending with the Tilde character "~" for 127.

The following code added to a .py file will execute the output of all printable ascii, with seven instances that don't conform (labeled DNF) for the seven characters here print() and modifications were made for the characters bytesrangin order to avoid duplicates:

print(bytes(range(32,33))),

Note: I didn't make an exception for the ascii comma character (i.e. 44) as that isn't necessary in the program except when all programs are run from one file, as a line separator). And the letters after the # symbol are just comments.

Answer 23

J, 870 bytes

Extremely boring right now, but I am hoping to find ways to golf this further. So far, only the numbers are golfed. Nearly every program is of the form echo u:xx, where xx is the ascii code. The exceptions are for the characters [echo u:0-9]. For the letters, I used 1!:2&2 u:xx. Most numbers are printed using echo>:x, which just increments some number, except for 0, 1, and 6.

echo@u:32   : SPACE
echo?1      : 0
echo*2      : 1
echo!3      : 6
echo 58{a.  : :
1!:2&2 u:99 : c

Total score is computed via: 12*4 + 11 + 10*24 + 9*56 + 7*7 + 6*3 = 870 or via

p DATA.readlines.sum{_1.chomp.size} #=> 870
__END__
echo@u:32
echo u:33
echo u:34
echo u:35
echo u:36

Explanation:

• !"#%&: Push constant integers with this codepoint (U=33 through Z=38, except for X=36), and convert it from an integer to a character with $
• ': Same, but with Z incremented to 39 with ) before the $
• 0: + in an empty program without input, it'll implicitly use 0 for mathematical builtins, so it'll implicitly do 0+0, which results in 0
• 1: ) increments once, so just like the + it'll implicitly use a 0, which gets incremented to 1
• 23456789: push the previous digit, and increment it once with )
• ): push character '*' and decrement it with (
• every other character: push the previous character with ' and increment it with )

Most programs are of the form

"\x##"

where ## is the 2 digit hex identifier for each character. For example, "\x2A" yields "+". The 13 exceptions are all the digits, ", \ and x:

Answer 28

Perl 5: 1074 bytes

Translation of the Perl 6 version, thanks to @smls.

The programs are print"\x<hex code>"

Exceptions:
Numbers are calculated and printed like print n+1 or print n-1
The special chars needed for hex code (", \, x) are printed as print chr <hex code> The chars out of "print" are printed in an eval like eval"print'\x<hexcode>'" and replacing the char in print with its hexcode.

Every printable ASCII character aside from 0123456789C *abcdefghijklmnoopqrstuvwxyz is represented as <charcode>C. The charcodes of {|}~ are represented using the compressed integers ⁺⌐, ⁺æ, ⁺ʀ, and ⁺ʁ. The score of these totals 168.

and * are respectively represented as ð and ×, score 2. a-z are represented as the compressed strings«ƛ, «¬, «∧ etc, score 52. C is represented as \c⇧, score 3. Out of the digits, 0 is represented by the empty string, 1 and 2 are represented by › and ⇧ respectively, and the other seven are represented by <n-1>›, for a total score of 16.

The total score is 241.

Answer 30

Pascal, 3828

The first program requires a processor supporting ISO standard 10206 “Extended Pascal” features, in particular the empty string ''. Furthermore, the implementation‑defined set of char values as well as their respective ordinal values must match ASCII. Technically, Pascal does not dictate any particular character set.

program s(output);begin write('':1)end.

NB: The above first program uses horizontal tabulation characters as blanks.

DNP: Parentheses, semicolon, or period cannot be omitted from the source code.

Boolean: Theoretically you could use 2>1:1 to print the letter T (and a false expression for the letter F). However, the casing, whether it is uppercase or lowercase, is implementation‑defined. The GNU Pascal Compiler emits True/False, the FreePascal Compiler emits TRUE/FALSE or True/False in an ISO compiler compatibility mode.
