The shortest ooc quine
👋 This page was last updated ~13 years ago. Just so you know.
A few days ago I posted an ooc quine. But while browing HackerNews, I found an even shorter one. The shortest!
Here it is, in its full glory
Can’t see anything? That’s an empty file. It will compile and run just fine. ooc doesn’t require a main function - you can just shove code in there that will run at the program’s initialization. If there’s none, no big deal! It’ll just not run anything.
That’s one nice side-effect of simple design.

The promise of Rust
The part that makes Rust scary is the part that makes it unique.
And it’s also what I miss in other programming languages — let me explain!
Rust syntax starts simple.
This function prints a number:
fn show ( n : i64 ) {
println! ( "n = {n}" );
}
And this program calls that function — it looks like any C-family language so far, we got parentheses, we got curly brackets, we got, uhh…
