<i>"in six lines of C"</i><p>I'm not impressed. It could be done in 1 line of C when he left out the line-breaks.<p>I don't think obfuscated code is interesting. It's unreadable. And therefore it's hard to learn something from it.<p>But it's nice he is explaining the code. Now that is interesting!
Interesting indeed. But weird that he uses obfuscated code when doing a piece of explaining how it's done. Or do people actually write for loops like those? :P
