[John] Split long lines in post

Hi Danjel,

Welcome to CodeRanch!

Firstly, this is NotACodeMill. We do not give (and do not encourage giving) ready-made answers.

Secondly, please, ShowSomeEffort. What have you tried to solve this issue so far? Where exactly are you facing issue?

Finally, CarefullyChooseOneForum. I doubt whether this question has anything to do with SCJP/OCPJP.

I hope this helps.

[Danjel Nyberg]

Sorry for this, was just spinning off of the recent chars not compiling threads, plus i though i'd give you some fun for the weekend. perhaps the wrong forum.

Kind Regards
/Danjel

[Jelle Klap]

I hardly expect it would take anyone a weekend to sysout the Unicode escapes
I'll move this to Programming Diversions for you.

[John Jai]

Ohh Danjel, are you asking about how to bring the given unicode chars as output, or you ask what is the output on executing this

[fred rosenberger]

execute it in what? Perl? AWK? Assembly? c-shell?

[Enkita mody]

It should be in meaningless drive.

I disagree. I think it best suites Programming Diversions - "A place for programming puzzles, challenges, interview questions, and similar fun.", according to its description.

Okay, No hurts.It's up to you where you put it.

Answer is JAVA

class test
 { 
          public static void main(String[] args)
    { System.out.println("JAVA");
    }
}

Wrote a small program to read those unicode strings from a file and convert each into a char

If you like code obfuscations, take a look at some of the candidates from obfuscation contests -- which are many many orders of magnitude more difficult to decipher than unicode to text.... ... It is really cool looking at code, that generates output that doesn't seem to have any relationship with the original code.

Agree , the title of this thread should have been "Easiest problem this week"

[Dave Trower]

The is in base64.
You can decode it here:
Base 64 decoder
So copy: OikgTm8sT1Aga25ldyB0aGUgYW5zd2VyLGhlIHdhbnRlZCB0byBnaXZlIHBlb3BsZSBhICJmdW4gdGFzayIgZm9yIHRoZSB3ZWVrZW5kIQ==
into the text box and select "decode"
And you get this:
No,OP knew the answer,he wanted to give people a "fun task" for the weekend!

I know Perl lets you do some crazy stuff. People have written scripts to translate your source into ASCII art. here is one I made I am particularly proud of. What I posted is a 100% valid perl script you can run.

[Rohan Deshmkh]

The answer is:
class test { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("JAVA");}}

It was very easy with python.
