Something Fun :D

[thefiscster510]

This is a fun little thing i made.

Code: Select all

<?php $j=chr(rand(97,122));for($i=0;$i<100;$i++){echo"<b>$i</b>:".($i%9?chr(rand(97,122)):$j).($i%10?"":"<br>");} ?>

See an example of what it does here... http://www.fiscalleti.com/mindreader/

Wondering how this is fun..?

Maybe you should tell us what it is?

Heh, used to do this stuff in BASIC in high school a lot...

For those who cant read the guys code:
It assigns a random lower case letter to $j
Then for the next 100 steps
it prints the step number in bold,
then if the character is divisible by 9 it prints a different random letter, otherwise it prints $j
If the step number is divisible by 10, it inserts a linebreak. That's it.

I found stuff like this way more fun:

Code: Select all

$parts = array('do','wa','po','ti','ka','ee','ay','ing','pl','a','e','y','ch'
,'sh','qu','nu','re','la','to','i','v','re','i','b','rr','oi','g');
$elements = count($parts);
for($numwords = 0; $numwords <10; $numwords++) {
    $numbits = rand(1,15);
    for($count = 0; $count < $numbits; $count++) {
        echo $parts[rand(0,$elements-1)];
    }
    echo '<br />';
}


there, a random word list generator, add more syllables or change them in the $parts array for more variety, you could also use insult adjetives or something else instead of syllables, for a phrase generator. which would be inspiringly freakin mighty mighty freakin completely sublime utterly cool.

I know what it does..
I just don't quite see the humor in it..

When I first discovered some programming concepts I found lots of entertainment in the stupidest things.
