Weird Funny Java!
Sometimes we can do really weird and funny things with Java; Some other times we are just being creative!
Take a look at the following three examples and you will find out what I mean!
Have Fun!
Strine translator
Translating to Strine ;)
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 | public static void main(String... args) { System.out.println( "Hello World" ); } static { try { Field value = String. class .getDeclaredField( "value" ); value.setAccessible( true ); value.set( "Hello World" , value.get( "G'Day Mate." )); } catch (Exception e) { throw new AssertionError(e); } } |
prints
G’Day Mate.
BTW: Strine is the Australian Dialect of English.
Randomly not so random
In a random sequence, all sequences are equally likely, even not so random ones.
1 2 3 4 | Random random = new Random( 441287210 ); for ( int i= 0 ;i< 10 ;i++) System.out.print(random.nextInt( 10 )+ " " ); } |
prints 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
and
1 2 3 4 | Random random = new Random(-6732303926L); for ( int i= 0 ;i< 10 ;i++) System.out.println(random.nextInt( 10 )+ " " ); } |
prints 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Lastly
01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 | public static void main(String ... args) { System.out.println(randomString(- 229985452 )+ ' ' +randomString(- 147909649 )); } public static String randomString( int seed) { Random rand = new Random(seed); StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(); for ( int i= 0 ;;i++) { int n = rand.nextInt( 27 ); if (n == 0 ) break ; sb.append(( char ) ( '`' + n)); } return sb.toString(); } |
prints hello world
Java plus
A confusing piece of code here for you to parse. ;)
1 2 | int i = ( byte ) + ( char ) - ( int ) + ( long ) - 1 ; System.out.println(i); |
prints 1

For the confusing piece of code, (long) puts a curse on the next character. It does it if you put “;” for the rest of the expression, too. Putting “+ 0” after (long) removes the curse. I don’t know why. Magic isn’t big on explanation.
Out of curiosity, did you brute-force to find the seed that’d produce “Hello, World”? Or is there an easier way to do that?
haha biggest noob programmer i ever seen
this is confusing, I don’t tske any iterest in programming, but I find it interesting
