| Feb 24, 2013 at 1:03 | comment | added | MaiaVictor | @radarbob that's not the point, the system won't accept statements and variable definitions. Notice everything is an expression. This is analyzed by the AI. Are you curious to see it? | |

| Feb 23, 2013 at 18:12 | comment | added | MaiaVictor | That's fine, this isn't meant to be human readable as it is the base of an AI programming system I'm developing. Less tokens = better and I must avoid varaibles. | |

Yay I'm glad I motivated someone to joining in. Great way to start, also. That was the obvious thing I was missing, recursion! Adapting from your answer, I got the one-liner: function inc_str(str){ return (last(str) == "z") ? inc_str(head(str)) + "a" : head(str) + inc_char(last(str)); }; So elegant! Thank you.
