# Secret Handshake
|
||||
|
||||
> There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand
|
||||
> binary, and those who don't.
|
||||
|
||||
You and your fellow cohort of those in the "know" when it comes to
|
||||
binary decide to come up with a secret "handshake".
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
1 = wink
|
||||
10 = double blink
|
||||
100 = close your eyes
|
||||
1000 = jump
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
10000 = Reverse the order of the operations in the secret handshake.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Given a decimal number, convert it to the appropriate sequence of events for a secret handshake.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's a couple of examples:
|
||||
|
||||
Given the input 3, the function would return the array
|
||||
["wink", "double blink"] because 3 is 11 in binary.
|
||||
|
||||
Given the input 19, the function would return the array
|
||||
["double blink", "wink"] because 19 is 10011 in binary.
|
||||
Notice that the addition of 16 (10000 in binary)
|
||||
has caused the array to be reversed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure you have read the "Guides" section of the
|
||||
[C track][c-track] on the Exercism site. This covers
|
||||
the basic information on setting up the development environment expected
|
||||
by the exercises.
|
||||
|
||||
## Passing the Tests
|
||||
|
||||
Get the first test compiling, linking and passing by following the [three
|
||||
rules of test-driven development][3-tdd-rules].
|
||||
|
||||
The included makefile can be used to create and run the tests using the `test`
|
||||
task.
|
||||
|
||||
make test
|
||||
|
||||
Create just the functions you need to satisfy any compiler errors and get the
|
||||
test to fail. Then write just enough code to get the test to pass. Once you've
|
||||
done that, move onto the next test.
|
||||
|
||||
As you progress through the tests, take the time to refactor your
|
||||
implementation for readability and expressiveness and then go on to the next
|
||||
test.
|
||||
|
||||
Try to use standard C99 facilities in preference to writing your own
|
||||
low-level algorithms or facilities by hand.

## Submitting Incomplete Solutions
|
||||
It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
