So what do you think?

I wrote the following: Code: #include <acknex.h> #include <default.c> #include "mtlView.c" #include "mtlFx.c" #include <stdio.h> #include <windows.h> int main () { } and compiled it with a result of 107.491 bytes. Then, I compiled my project with exact the same includes and received 113.359 bytes. So, am I right that my app is only 113.359 - 107.491 = 5868 bytes great with being < 10 240 bytes = 10 kB ? Quote: why is this confusing? only your own code counts. i think the 10240 bytes limit is important because 100 semicolons aren't really limiting. I just want to know how to calculate the size of my compiled code without taking the permitted stuff into account. Last edited by HeelX; 05/22/08 08:41.

George Expert Joined: Aug 2003 Posts: 2,011 Bucharest, Romania	JCL is the sponsor, so he is the ultimate ruler These are the contest rules as I understand them: - The code must use a total of 100 semicolons (or less) and the resulting code file size must be 10,240 bytes (or less). If you use several code files, add their sizes - the total must be 10,240 bytes or less. - The code that comes with GameStudio won't be taken into account. Feel free to include as many built-in code files as you want. - The size of the executable doesn't matter. - If you want to use a dll you have to provide the source code for it as well; the total number of semicolons (dll source + project source) must obey the <= 100 semicolons rule and the total file size must be 10,240 bytes or less.

mercuryus Unregistered M	Excuse me for my question but WHAT is estimated in this 100-code-lines-contest in the end? - the entry with the most functionality - the best idea (gamedesign) - reusabitlity of templates - the best looking entry (mostly reached by good graphics) - the best (cryptic/compressed) script - the best readable/undastandable/reusable code - the best idea (recursions, math. algotithms, AI) I'm a little confused to set the focus... mercuryus
