From 6ad9774189fbd64b2f2c9519f4513ab34b0c3809 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Gauer Date: Fri, 12 Mar 2021 18:59:46 -0500 Subject: "999 is enough for anybody" triple-zero padding (#18) When I hit 999 exercises, I will finally have reached the ultimate state of soteriological release and no more exercises will be needed. The cycle will be complete. All that will be left is perfect quietude, freedom, and highest happiness. --- exercises/06_strings.zig | 48 ------------------------------------------------ 1 file changed, 48 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 exercises/06_strings.zig (limited to 'exercises/06_strings.zig') diff --git a/exercises/06_strings.zig b/exercises/06_strings.zig deleted file mode 100644 index 6258816..0000000 --- a/exercises/06_strings.zig +++ /dev/null @@ -1,48 +0,0 @@ -// -// Now that we've learned about arrays, we can talk about strings. -// -// We've already seen Zig string literals: "Hello world.\n" -// -// Zig stores strings as arrays of bytes. -// -// const foo = "Hello"; -// -// Is the same as: -// -// const foo = [_]u8{ 'H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o' }; -// -const std = @import("std"); - -pub fn main() void { - const ziggy = "stardust"; - - // (Problem 1) - // Use array square bracket syntax to get the letter 'd' from - // the string "stardust" above. - const d: u8 = ziggy[???]; - - // (Problem 2) - // Use the array repeat '**' operator to make "ha ha ha ". - const laugh = "ha " ???; - - // (Problem 3) - // Use the array concatenation '++' operator to make "Major Tom". - // (You'll need to add a space as well!) - const major = "Major"; - const tom = "Tom"; - const major_tom = major ??? tom; - - // That's all the problems.
