while-quine
Advanced tools
This script uses breadth-first search on possible abstract syntax trees to find a Quine for the WHILE programming language.
npm build: Fetch and build the WHILE binary. Requires the Haskell Tool Stack.
npm clean: Empty the table of previous attempts in history.csv. Usually you do not want to run this because you do not want to recompute the whole table.
npm start: Start the program to undertake further attempts at finding a quine. The search tree will be built anew on each start, but all previous attempts which are saved in history.csv will not be executed again. The attempts will be saved to history.csv.
It would be cool if you could clone the project, run it for a few hours or days, and submit a pull request with your results :)
If you actually find the Quine with this program, you can collect 2.5£ reward from me. This presupposes that you do not before me claim the original 5£ reward.
Also, if you have any suggestions how to improve the script, your issues and pull requests are very welcome!
