Smaller snake

June 22, 2008 on 4:51 pm | In Uncategorized | | Jeremy Read

Since we all love CompSci 101 so much, also as I’m testing out the source code highlighting plugin I present ’smaller snake’. You could write Snake a little smaller by storing head and apple in the same array as each other, or better yet with the snake. But I think this is just about as small as you can make it in java and still be ‘readable’. Apple probably shouldn’t be from fixed values or should be based on the container size, but I’m too lazy to fix it now.
