Programming Challenge #2
Level: Really Easy!

Challenge: Create a program that asks the user for their name, and once they enter it, says "Hello, [personsname]" with the name that the person entered being where [personsname] is.

Every person who submits a program will win, the reward is 30LGG. If you make your program do any special other little things, you'll get some bonus LGG!

This contest has an unlimited amount of winners, and is open to anyone! If you're just learning programming, you can start with Challenge #1, and progress through them from there, as you'll learn programming as you go!

Enjoy!

[The Unintelligible]

$lolz = InputBox("", "Enter your name, gewd sir.")
$lolz &= '.' ; Concatenate period to complete sentence
ConsoleWrite("Hello, " & $lolz & @CRLF)

autoit this time.

autoit this time.

Nice, good job. I was about to go "Where the hell do I remember "@CRLF" from?" and then I saw your little thing at the bottom saying it was from AutoIt. It's a great scripting language, really useful.

[C0FFINCASE]

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>

using namespace std;

int main() {

string input = "";

cout << "Please enter your name:\n";
getline(cin, input);
cout << "Hello, " << input << endl << endl;

return 0;
}

Once again, sir, ur cool.

Not sure if sarcasm or genuine compliment.
I only know C++ and use logic to navigate other languages when I have to. I also haven't done shit with code in years now so I imagine a few contests in I won't be able to continue on.

Eh. I've noticed that you've been using C++ so I decided to sarcastically say you were cool. Though not really in a negative way.

I didn't pick up on it as negative. I was only unsure because you said it a second time.

[The Unintelligible]

CRLF is control feed. It's common in any major programming language. Just in AutoIt it's "@CRLF" rather than \n.

Typically known as the newline sequence. But yeah. AutoIt is alright.

[einstein95]

name = raw_input("What's your name, you foolish fool wearing the foolishly foolish clothes?\n")
print("Hello, "+name)
if name == "Franziska von Karma":
    print("Pheonix Wright, FTW!")

Phoenix Wright + Python

[Isonyx]

import java.util.Scanner;
 
public class Input {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		String name;
		Scanner receive = new Scanner(System.in);
               
                System.out.println("What is your name? ");
                name = receive.next();
               
                System.out.println("Hello, " + name);
               
                //Added Functionality
               System.out.println("Also, Flareboy is a fag.");
        } 
}

Since no Java yet.

So, in the process of completing the first challenge, I got inspiration and started doing random crazy shit... I submitted it to the other thread, but this seems to be more applied here...

Just modified it to include the location question.

Python 3.1

import random
output = open('out.txt', 'w')
id = str(random.randint(100000, 999999))
unit = str(random.randint(1, 13))
name = input('What is your name? ')
print('Why hello there ' + name + '.')
loc = input('What is your location? ')
print('Deploying Unit#' + unit + ' to ' + loc + '. Please wait where you are for retrieval.')
print('You are no longer ' + name + '. You will now be known as Prisoner#' + id + '.')
answer = input('Do you accept? Type Yes or No ')
if 'yes' in answer.lower():
    print('Enjoy your stay!')
    x = 'compliant'
else:
    print('Prisoner#' + id + ' is noncompliant. Beginning execution sequence.')
    x = 'non-compliant. Prisoner #' + id + ' executed'
output.write('Subject is ' + name + ' of ' + loc + '\n' + 'Subject will now be known as Prisoner#' + id + '\n' + 'Subject is ' + x)
output.close()

and once they enter it, says "Hello, [personsname]"

Cool code though. Interesting dialogue.

His code completely fits the criteria of the challenge. Standard solution or not.

[323]

Sweet, updated the winners list, and sent out the LGG!

Get ready for Challenge #3, coming your way soon!

Still open for anyone wanting to complete it

[323]

HEY GUYS NEW RULE FROM NOW ON AS LONG AS IT GENERALLY FITS THE CRITERIA I'LL ACCEPT IT.

I really don't give a shit if it says Hello or Hi or Hola or whatever the hell you want to write, as long as it's generally it.

It's funny because the solution he submitted qualified much more broadly than just "generally." It's not a general solution, it pretty much had every necessary facet. People are just griping for no reason being overly technical and whatnot.

Thanks for clarifying though.

[Smithno13]

I'm proud, my drunken code has inspired pages of argument.
Thanks for defending me, I guess?

When we going to see another challenge?

[imbaimba]

 <?php
$name = $argv[1];
echo 'Hello, ' . $name . ".";
?>  

Or you can do it with an HTML form.

1st file:

 <html>
<body>
 
<form action="php.php" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="personsname">
<input type="submit">
</form>
 
</body>
</html> 
  

2nd file:

<html>
<body>
 
Hello, <?php echo $_POST["personsname"]; ?>!
 
</body>
</html>
