Python without 'p' 😂 Here is mine: exec('chr(ord("o")+1)rint("Hello World")');

Anna You were right, that was possible, with __builtins__ involved. After getting some help from stackoverflow, here it is: The best i reached is: without a, e, f, g, h, j, k, m, o, p, q, v, w, x, y, z I think it is also possible to add 'c' to the list, but no time now ... https://code.sololearn.com/cNLgKTn3GnFF/?ref=app

I used only one p in import (It is allowed?): https://code.sololearn.com/cl7zF3cVf79j/?ref=app

I propose a next step in this challenge : Hard level = same assignment, not only 'p' forbidden, but also 'e' !! (Not sure it's possible with python)

Lipogram code ! Nice idea. https://code.sololearn.com/c9jXhZTrpBZr/#py What about 'sulqw Khoor Zruog' ? https://code.sololearn.com/ce6Yzve03WBX/#py

Anna Hey Anna ! I was looking in this direction too, unfortunately 'print' is not included in dir('__builtins__'). 'import builtins' is needed, and writing it uses a 'p' So I found a solution that will work on the web version of SL only, and ... I'm not so proud of it. https://code.sololearn.com/cqoaowCNM6W6/?ref=app

Wow ... Sorry guys, I cant mark one answer as best! It is not the one answer which I really like but so many different solutions like -hiding p with an expression for p in all tastes - warning - python egg - use stdout instead of print Thanks to all posts for it!

Cépagrave I'm already playing it with as least alphabets as possible 🤣 ...wait, without 'e' !? no exec, no eval, no write is that possible!? 🤔 ------------------------------------------------------ here's the code without 'p' and with 1 'e' https://code.sololearn.com/c7zv2SqQlASQ

Cépagrave I think it might be possible in python. Maybe if you call the print function via __builtins__.print.__call__(), but instead of calling the function directly, you use something like dir(dir(__builtins__)[])[] with the indices of the print and call functions in the square brackets... It's difficult though and probably won't run on every device

Cépagrave Congratulations, very well done 👍 Every method I found just returned the function name as a string ("print") and I would have needed eval or exec to actually run it (Btw, how can I reply to a comment or address a user directly?)

This program outputs 'Hello World!' on the screen without any print statemant. It's not actually without any 'p', but at least the print() function is not used https://code.sololearn.com/cW4X91aHyYrQ/?ref=app
