Write a program that reads positive integers from STDIN. For each integer, print the number of times the digit '1' occurs when counting from zero to that integer.
code:
in.txt:
1
2
5
20
30
40
82
10568

out.txt:
1
1
1
12
13
14

4786

code:

function countOnes(num)
{
	num = num.toString();
	var ones = 0;
	for (var i = 0, j = num.length - 1; i < num.length; i++, j--)
	{
		var power = Math.pow(10, j - 1);
		ones += power * j * num[i];
		if (num[i] > 1) ones += power * 10;
		if (num[i] == 1) ones += +num.substring(i + 1) + 1;
	}
	return ones;
}

that one actually took a while of thinking and trail/error to figure out

so the windows api has a function called GetGlyphOutline that can be used to get character glyphs from a font, which is just what i needed. but it only works for truetype fonts and just throws up an error on raster fonts. so i go off to find the raster font equivalent for that function

... oh, there is none.

well yeah, because that information isn't in a raster font to be gotten

the actual part i was using was grabbing a bitmap of the glyph at a specified size, which seems like it would be easy to do for a raster font, but alas there appears to be no way to do it with the windows api

but i did find this when searching for a solution: http://wine.1045685.n5.nabble.com/Re-1-2-gdi32-GetGlyphOutline-should-fail-for-a-bitmap-font-td5675449.html

"well this is incorrect behavior but the correct behavior breaks other things soooooo gently caress it"

tbc what do you think of php's use as a general scripting language? like for non-web stuff?

well it's not as ideally suited to the environment as it is for the web but it works just fine. i wrote a desktop app using php-gtk once and it turned out ok

it's a halfassed solution which requires an entirely new infrastructure to run /quickly/

not gonna pretend to know how its implemented but this js vm guy seems to think "the implementation cost should be small compared to the potential upside" https://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=2599

also lol native client did some poster really suggest that was a better solution than this?
