I'm down to 133 characters (counted according to 'wc -c') on a single
line. It contains about 11 whitespace characters (depending on what you
consider whitespace.) It's way too tricky for my taste, but it's fun to
play anyway. Has anyone done better so far? Here's a hint on my
strategy: the code contains three large integers. :-)
Also, here's another cheat version. (No, 7seg.com does not exist.)
import urllib2
def seven_seg(x):return urllib2.urlopen('http://7seg.com/'+x).read()
