# Why did I come to Sandbox? I have a very specific challenge, and I wanted to see if it was too specific. The challenge is to output "Valdosta ACM" using the shortest number of characters with the BrainF**k programming language. I've noticed it isn't the norm to specify a programming language on this domain, so I've come here to get feedback on whether or not this is acceptable. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- # Introduction As a challenge to the members of my local Association for Computing Machinery(ACM) chapter, I asked them to produce the shortest [Brainf**k](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainfuck) code that would output "Valdosta ACM". This was a very fun challenge for all of our members, and we got very competitive! I was impressed with the solutions turned in, but I wondered if it was possible to beat our best solution. Surely it's possible, but who could do it? # Challenge Output the string "Valdosta ACM". Stipulations: - Use only the Brainf**k programming language (you can test your code [here](https://sange.fi/esoteric/brainfuck/impl/interp/i.html)) - No input can be accepted by your program - Your program must halt - The space in the string must be ASCII character #032. These are the ASCII values of each character, as they appear in the string, for convenience: 086 097 108 100 111 115 116 097 032 065 067 077 The winner is determined by the shortest code, by character count. # Example Input and Output ### Input: **NO** input is allowed ### Output: > Valdosta ACM
