Ini gambarnya:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Hello,    %
%    world! %
%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Tapi itu terlalu membingungkan untuk dikalkulasi oleh otak kita yang berukuran terlalu kecil. Jadi kami rata-rata seperti ini:

1. Bagilah menjadi 2 x 2 bagian. Jika gambar berakhir sebelum bagian selesai, bayangkan ada ruang di sana.

2. Rata-rata nilai karakter ASCII di setiap bagian.

3. Bulatkan rata-rata ini dan ubah menjadi karakter ASCII.

4. Akhirnya, ganti semua karakter di bagian ke karakter rata-rata.

Ulangi ini untuk semua bagian.

Jadi rata-rata gambar di atas terlihat seperti ini:

$$>>II99######
$$>>II99######
$$##88KKGG####
$$##88KKGG####

Tugas Anda: Tulis program yang mengambil gambar ASCII sebagai input dan output rata-rata.

Catatan Integer dibulatkan oleh fungsi floor(x+0.5)atau fungsi serupa - dengan kata lain, babak dibelah dua.

2thZCO32XEoYmYocGZy2/Xke2t3$Y"

Input adalah array char 2D, dengan baris dipisahkan oleh ;.

Penjelasan

2th     % push array [2 2]
ZC      % take input implicitly. Arrange distinct 2x2 blocks as columns, padding with 0
O32XE   % replace 0 by 32 (space)
oYm     % convert to number. Take mean of each column
Yoc     % round. Convert to char
GZy     % size of input in the 2 dimensions
2/Xk    % divide each dimension by 2, and round up to account for the padding
e       % reshape into image with half original size in each dimension
2t3$Y"  % replicate by a factor of 2 in each dimension. Display implicitly

Ruby, 180 158 148 128 + 4 124 + 4 = 128 byte

Jalankan dengan $ ruby -nl(+4 byte untuk -nlbendera). Mengambil input pada STDIN.

y,x=x,$_.scan(/..?/)
(puts [x.zip(y).map{|c|(("%2s"*2%c).bytes.reduce(:+)/4.0).round.chr*2}*""]*2
y,x=x,[])if$.%2<1||$<.eof?

Tidak dikelompokkan & penjelasan

Per man ruby, -nbendera "[c] akan memudarkan Ruby untuk menganggap loop berikut di sekitar skrip Anda ... while gets ... end". Variabel khusus $_berisi baris terakhir yang dibaca oleh gets. The -lbendera menghilangkan \ndari setiap baris, setara dengan $_.chop!.

y, x = x, $_.scan(/..?/)

( puts [
    x.zip(y).map {|c|
      (("%2s" * 2 % c).bytes.reduce(:+) / 4.0).round.chr * 2
    } * ""
  ] * 2
  y, x = x, []
) if $. % 2 < 1 || $<.eof?

Variabel khusus $.adalah jumlah baris yang telah dibaca sejauh ini, dan $<adalah STDIN. Pasangan karakter dari setiap baris kedua akan di-zip dengan baris sebelumnya. String format %2s%2smenggabungkan karakter dan membalutnya dengan spasi, lalu karakter dirata-ratakan.
