### Rules

• You can't use a builtin outputting this text.
• Standard loopholes are disallowed.
• This is , so the shortest answer wins.

Good luck!

• I noticed the code points are not directly in order. You have 1488, 1489, 1490, 1491, 1492, 1493, 1494, 1495, 1496, 1497, 1499, 1498, 1500, 1502, 1501, 1504, 1503, 1505, 1506, 1508, 1507, 1510, 1509, 1511, 1512, 1513, 1514. I don't know very much about Hebrew, so could you confirm this is indeed intentional? Oct 21 '16 at 17:27
• @DJMcMayhem Unicode list final letters before normal letters but in the text in the question normal letters are listed before. It was not really intentional, but at least it encourage answers that are not as boring as print(map(chr, range(x, y))) Oct 21 '16 at 17:29

# MATLAB, 52 51 bytes

[cumsum([1488 'CCCCCCCCCDADDAEADCDAEADCCC'-66]) '']


Example use:

>> [cumsum([1488 'CCCCCCCCCDADDAEADCDAEADCCC'-66]) '']
ans =
אבגדהוזחטיכךלמםנןסעפףצץקרשת


### Explanation

'CCCCCCCCCDADDAEADCDAEADCCC'-66 produces the array [1 1 ... -1 2 1 1 1], which contains the consecutive differences between the codepoints of the desired characters.

[1488 ...] prepends 1488, so the array is now [1488 1 1 ... -1 2 1 1 1].

cumsum(...) computes the cumulative sum: [1488 1489 ... 1514].

[... ''] concatenates with the empty string. This has the effect of converting to char (and is one byte shorter than char(...))

### Idea

If we subtract 1487 from each code point, we get the array R that follows.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 12 11 13 15 14 17 16 18 19 21 20 23 22 24 25 26 27


That's just the range from 1 to 27, but not in ascending order; the pairs (11, 12), (14, 15), (16, 17), (20, 21), and (22, 23) have been swapped.

If we take the ascending range and add 2 to 11, 14, 16, 20, and 22, we get the array A that follows.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 13 12 13 16 15 18 17 18 19 22 21 24 23 24 25 26 27


This is no longer a permutation of the range, but if we stably sort the range by the values in that array, we can reconstruct the original array.

### Code

This yields the array A from the previous section.
Ụ        Grade up; sort the indices of the result by its corresponding
values. This yields the array R from the previous section.

## PowerShell v2+, 58 bytes (UTF-16)

'אבגדהוזחטיכךלמםנןסעפףצץקרשת'


PowerShell Unicode is UTF-16 unless explicitly specified otherwise, and then it's a crapshoot anyway since it's all UTF-16 in the background.

This just puts the literal string on the pipeline and the default Write-Output at the end of program execution prints it to screen.

The shortest I could get the ASCII version is 63

-join([char[]]'ABCDEFGHIJLKMONQPRSUTWVXYZ['|%{[char](1423+$_)})  Which takes the ASCII value of the string ABC... and adds 1423 to each char to get the appropriate string. • Upvoted only because your ASCII version is clever. Must... support... clever... golfing! Oct 21 '16 at 18:48 • It took me at least 5 minutes to realise that it wasn't the actual alphabet in the ASCII version.

Python 3 dutifully prints an UTF-8 encoded version (or whatever is appropriate for the current locale) of the alphabet. ### Verification $ base64 > hebrew.py -d <<< I2NvZGluZzpjcDg2MgpwcmludCgngIGCg4SFhoeIiYuKjI6NkI+RkpSTlpWXmJmaJyk=

Many thanks to @Neil for this awesome integer metagolfer that created this sweet way of pushing 1488 (the code point of the first character) (((((((()()()()()){})){}{}()){({}[()])}{})){}{})  Explanation: Pushing large number in brain-flak is relatively difficult. However, since the act of pushing a number also evaluates to that number, we can push several numbers at the same time for massive byte savings. Here is a more concrete example. The innermost part (that I wrote above) in psuedo code is push(1488)  This expression evaluates to 1488, so we wrap the entire thing in another push statement: push(push(1488) + 1)  This pushes 1488 and 1489, as well as evaluating to 1489. So we wrap this: push(push(push(1488) + 1) + 1)  which pushes 1488, 1489, and 1490, as well as evaluating to 1490. Repeat this step for each number we need to push. However, since the increments aren't always 1, it's a little bit more complicated than that. Here is a more readable version: ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( #Push 1488 (((((((()()()()()){})){}{}()){({}[()])}{})){}{}) ()) # + 1 ()) ()) ()) ()) ()) ()) ()) ()) ()()) # + 2 [()]) # - 1 ()()) # + 2 ()()) [()]) # - 1 ()()()) # + 3 [()]) # - 1 ()()) # + 2 ()) # + 1 ()()) # + 2 [()]) # - 1 ()()()) # + 3 [()]) # - 1 ()()) # + 2 ()) # + 1 ()) ())  • I thought it is +1 for -r because the - doesn't count Oct 21 '16 at 17:47 • @NoOneIsHere - doesn't count if it is already present from a different option (e.g. in perl -e). Brain-Flak doesn't have an existing option like that, so -, the option, and the space after all count toward the total.
