Since working in industry, I've always been weirdly interested in the idea of obfuscation. In a language like Python, obfuscation is somewhat hard to do. After all, whitespace is forced and much of the syntax is as close to pseudocode as possible. So, what do you do?
Now, I've written a bit about obfuscation already. However, recently I wrote an article about creative ways to implement Hello World which got me thinking: how absurd of an implementation of Hello World could we write? That's the challenge set out to tackle in this repo.
To keep things simple, I'm restricting the repo to one change per pull request. That way, we can go back and see this beast transform one pull request at a time. In addition, I'm restricting the repo to Python 3.5 and above.
