# Contributing
By reading this document, you have already entered the Elite Hall
of Ziglings Maintenance!
## The Ziglings Audience
Ziglings is intended for programmers of all experience levels. No
specific language knowledge is expected. Anyone who can install
the current Zig snapshot, setup a copy of Ziglings, and knows
common language building blocks (if/then/else, loops, and
functions) is ready for Ziglings.
Ziglings is intended to be completely self-contained. If you
can't solve an exercise from the information you've gleaned so
far from Ziglings, then the exercise probably needs some
additional work. Please file an issue!
If an example doesn't match a description or if something is
unclear, please file an issue!
## Spelling/Grammar
If you see any typos, please file an issue...or make a pull
request!
No mistake is too small. The Ziglings must be perfect. :-)
## Ideas
If you have ideas for new lessons or a way Ziglings could be
improved, don't hesitate to file an issue.
Feel free to submit new exercises but please understand that they
may be heavily edited or rejected entirely if we feel they don't
fit for one reason or another.
## Platforms and Zig Versions
Because it uses the Zig build system, Ziglings should work
wherever Zig does.
Since Ziglings is a Zig language learning resource, it tracks the
current development snapshots of Zig from the official website
downloads page.
If you run into an error in Ziglings caused by breaking changes
in the latest development build of Zig, that's a new bug in
Ziglings. Please file an issue...or make a pull request!
## Formatting
All exercises should conform to `zig fmt`. I often forget to do
this.
## Pull Request Workflow
Ziglings uses the "standard" Github workflow as guided by the Web
interface. Specifically:
* Fork this repository
* Create a branch from `main` for your work:
`git checkout -b my-branch`
* Make changes, commit them
* When your changes are ready for review, push your branch:
`git push origin my-branch`
* Create a pull request from your branch to `ziglings/main`
* Your faithful Ziglings maintainers will take a look at your
request ASAP (we don't talk about May-July 2022, LOL)
* Once the changes are reviewed, your request will be merged and
eternal Ziglings contributor glory is yours!
## The Secrets
If you want to peek at the secrets, take a look at the `patches/`
directory.

# Ziglings
# ⚠️ Ziglings has moved from GitHub to Codeberg!
You are looking at the current Ziglings repo if you are viewing
this at https://codeberg.org/ziglings/exercises/
You can also use the handy URL https://ziglings.org to get here!
***
Welcome to Ziglings! This project contains a series of tiny
broken programs (and one nasty surprise). By fixing them, you'll
learn how to read and write [Zig](https://ziglang.org/) code.
![Ziglings](images/ziglings.jpg "Ziglings")
Those broken programs need your help! (You'll also save the
planet from evil aliens and help some friendly elephants stick
together, which is very sweet of you.)
This project was directly inspired by the brilliant and fun
[rustlings](https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings)
project for the [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/) language.
Indirect inspiration comes from [Ruby Koans](http://rubykoans.com/)
and the Little LISPer/Little Schemer series of books.
## Intended Audience
This will probably be difficult if you've _never_ programmed
before. But no specific programming experience is required. And
in particular, you are _not_ expected to have any prior
experience with "systems programming" or a "systems" level
language such as C.
Each exercise is self-contained and self-explained. However,
you're encouraged to also check out these Zig language resources
for more detail:
* https://ziglang.org/learn/
* https://ziglearn.org/
* https://ziglang.org/documentation/master/
* [Zig in Depth! (video series)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMtvGA1YhW4&list=PLtB7CL7EG7pCw7Xy1SQC53Gl8pI7aDg9t&pp=iAQB)
Also, the [Zig community](https://github.com/ziglang/zig/wiki/Community)
is incredibly friendly and helpful!
## Getting Started
Install a [development build](https://ziglang.org/download/) of
the Zig compiler. (See the "master" section of the downloads
page.)
Verify the installation and build number of `zig` like so:
```
$ zig version
0.12.0-dev.xxxx+xxxxxxxxx
```
Clone this repository with Git:
```
$ git clone https://ziglings.org
$ cd ziglings.org
```
Then run `zig build` and follow the instructions to begin!
```
$ zig build
```
Note: The output of Ziglings is the unaltered output from the Zig
compiler. Part of the purpose of Ziglings is to acclimate you to
reading these.
## A Note About Versions
**Hint:** To check out Ziglings for a stable release of Zig, you can use
the appropriate tag.
The Zig language is under very active development. In order to be
current, Ziglings tracks **development** builds of the Zig
compiler rather than versioned **release** builds. The last
stable release was `0.11.0`, but Ziglings needs a dev build with
pre-release version "0.12.0" and a build number at least as high
as that shown in the example version check above.
It is likely that you'll download a build which is _greater_ than
the minimum.
Once you have a build of the Zig compiler that works with
Ziglings, they'll continue to work together. But keep in mind
that if you update one, you may need to also update the other.

## Advanced Usage
It can be handy to check just a single exercise:
```
zig build -Dn=19
```
You can also run without checking for correctness:
```
zig build -Dn=19 test
```
Or skip the build system entirely and interact directly with the
compiler if you're into that sort of thing:
```
zig run exercises/001_hello.zig
```
Calling all wizards: To prepare an executable for debugging,
install it to zig-cache/bin with:
```
zig build -Dn=19 install
```
To get a list of all possible options, run:
```
zig build -Dn=19 -l
install Install 019_functions2.zig to prefix path
uninstall Uninstall 019_functions2.zig from prefix path
test Run 019_functions2.zig without checking output
...
```
## What's Covered
The primary goal for Ziglings is to cover the core Zig language.
It would be nice to cover the Standard Library as well, but this
is currently challenging because the stdlib is evolving even
faster than the core language (and that's saying something!).
Not only would stdlib coverage change very rapidly, some
exercises might even cease to be relevant entirely.
Having said that, there are some stdlib features that are
probably here to stay or are so important to understand that they
are worth the extra effort to keep current.
Conspicuously absent from Ziglings are a lot of string
manipulation exercises. This is because Zig itself largely avoids
dealing with strings. Hopefully there will be an obvious way to
address this in the future. The Ziglings crew loves strings!

## Contributing
Contributions are very welcome! I'm writing this to teach myself
and to create the learning resource I wished for. There will be
tons of room for improvement:
* Wording of explanations
* Idiomatic usage of Zig
