A truth machine (credits goes to dis guy for coming up with it) is a very simple program designed to demonstrate the I/O and control flow of a language. Here's what a truth machine does:
Gets a number (either 0 or 1) from STDIN.
If that number is 0, print out 0 and terminate.
If that number is 1, print out 1 forever.
#Challenge#
Write a truth machine as described above in your language of choice. The truth machine must be a full program that follows these rules:
take input from STDIN or an acceptable alternative
- If your language cannot take input from STDIN, it may take input from a hardcoded variable or suitable equivalent in the program
must output to STDOUT or an acceptable alternative
when the input is
1, it must continually print1s and only stop if the program is killed or runs out of memorythe output must only be either a
0followed by either one or no newline, or infinite1s with each1followed by either one or no newline. No other output can be generated, except constant output of your language's interpreter that cannot be suppressed (such as a greeting, ANSI color codes or indentation). Your usage of newlines must be consistent: for example, if you choose to output1with a newline after it all1s must have a newline after them.if and only if your language cannot possibly terminate on an input of
0it is acceptable for the code to enter an infinite loop in which nothing is outputted.
Since this is a catalog, languages created after this challenge are allowed to compete. Note that there must be an interpreter so the submission can be tested. It is allowed (and even encouraged) to write this interpreter yourself for a previously unimplemented language. Other than that, all the standard rules of code-golf must be obeyed. Submissions in most languages will be scored in bytes in an appropriate preexisting encoding (usually UTF-8).
#Catalog#
The Stack Snippet at the bottom of this post generates the catalog from the answers a) as a list of shortest solution per language and b) as an overall leaderboard.
To make sure that your answer shows up, please start your answer with a headline, using the following Markdown template:
## Language Name, N bytes
where N is the size of your submission. If you improve your score, you can keep old scores in the headline, by striking them through. For instance:
## Ruby, <s>104</s> <s>101</s> 96 bytes
If there you want to include multiple numbers in your header (e.g. because your score is the sum of two files or you want to list interpreter flag penalties separately), make sure that the actual score is the last number in the header:
## Perl, 43 + 2 (-p flag) = 45 bytes
You can also make the language name a link which will then show up in the snippet:
## [><>](http://esolangs.org/wiki/Fish), 121 bytes
