VC3 Challenge 2022: ZX81 wins!

Post by dr beep »

The ZX81 is capable of coding the shortest code to create the christmas star from the VC3 Compo 2022.

It even beats the ZX Spectrum (runner up and a lot slower) by 2 bytes!

Wow! 27 Bytes for the Zeddy and 29 Bytes for the Spectrum.
Would you share the programs with us?
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.
