The shortest program by character count that accepts standard input of the form X-Y R
, with the following guarantees:
R
is a non-negative decimal number less than or equal to 8X
and Y
are non-negative angles given in decimal as multiples of 45° (0
, 45
, 90
, 135
, etc.)X
is less than Y
Y
is not 360
if X
is 0
And produces on standard output an ASCII "arc" from the starting angle X
to the ending angle Y
of radius R
, where:
o
0
and 180
are represented by -
45
and 225
are represented by /
90
and 270
are represented by |
135
and 315
are represented by \
The program is not required to produce meaningful output if given invalid input. Solutions in any language are allowed, except of course a language written specifically for this challenge, or one that makes unfair use of an external utility. Extraneous horizontal and vertical whitespace is allowed in the output provided that the format of the output remains correct.
Happy golfing!

Original version commented:

for$y(-$3..$3){ # loop for each row and col

EDIT 1: Inlined sub, relational and equality operators return 0 or 1.
EDIT 2: Added version with comments.
EDIT 3: Fixed enclosing line at 360º. Char count increased significantly.
EDIT 4: Added a shorter version, bending the rules.
EDIT 5: Smarter fix for the 360º enclosing line. Also, use a number as fill. Both things were obvious. Meh, I should sleep more :/
EDIT 6: Removed unneeded m
from match operator. Removed some semicolons.
EDIT 7: Smarter regexp. Under 200 chars!
EDIT 8: Lots of small improvements:
split
string -> qw (3 chars)
EDIT 9: A little reordering in the conditional operators saves 2 chars.
EDIT 10: Use barewords for characters.
EDIT 11: Moved print inside of loop, inspired by Lowjacker's answer.
EDIT 12: Added version using say
.
EDIT 13: Reuse angles characters for fill character, as Gwell's answer does. Output isn't as nice as Gwell's though, that would require 5 additional chars :) Also, .. operator doen't need parentheses.
EDIT 14: Apply regex directly to <>. Assign range operator to a variable, as per Adrian's suggestion to bta's answer. Add version without the final newline. Updated say
version.
EDIT 15: More inlining. map{block}@a -> map expr,@a.
