Code Golf: Build Me an Arc

Answer 1

Ruby, 292 276 186 chars

x,y,r=gets.scan(/\d+/).map{|z|z.to_i};s=(-r..r);s.each{|a|s.each{|b|g=Math::atan2(-a,b)/Math::PI*180/1%360;print a|b==0?'o':g==x||g==y%360?'-/|\\'[g/45%4].chr: (x..y)===g ?'*':' '};puts}

Nicer-formatted version:

x, y, r = gets.scan(/\d+/).map{|z| z.to_i}
s = (-r..r)
s.each {|a|
    s.each {|b|
        g = (((Math::atan2(-a,b) / Math::PI) * 180) / 1) % 360
        print ((a | b) == 0) ? 'o' :
            (g == x || g == (y % 360)) ? '-/|\\'[(g / 45) % 4].chr :
                ((x..y) === g) ? '*' : ' '
    }
    puts
}

I'm sure someone out there who got more sleep than I did can condense this more...

Edit 1: Switched if statements in inner loop to nested ? : operator

Edit 2: Stored range to intermediate variable (thanks Adrian), used stdin instead of CLI params (thanks for the clarification Jon), eliminated array in favor of direct output, fixed bug where an ending angle of 360 wouldn't display a line, removed some un-needed parentheses, used division for rounding instead of .round, used modulo instead of conditional add

Answer 2

MATLAB, 188 chars :)

input '';[w x r]=strread(ans,'%d-%d%d');l='-/|\-/|\-';[X Y]=meshgrid(-r:r);T=atan2(-Y,X)/pi*180;T=T+(T<=0)*360;T(T>w&T<x)=-42;T(T==w)=-l(1+w/45);T(T==x)=-l(1+x/45);T(r+1,r+1)=-'o';char(-T)

Commented code:

%%# Get the string variable (enclose in quotes, e.g. '45-315 4')
input ''
%%# Extract angles and length
[w x r]=strread(ans,'%d-%d%d');
%%# Store characters
l='-/|\-/|\-';
%%# Create the grid
[X Y]=meshgrid(-r:r);
%%# Compute the angles in degrees
T=atan2(-Y,X)/pi*180;
%%# Get all the angles
T=T+(T<=0)*360;
%# Negative numbers indicate valid characters
%%# Add the characters
T(T>w&T<x)=-42;
T(T==w)=-l(1+w/45);
T(T==x)=-l(1+x/45);
%%# Add the origin
T(r+1,r+1)=-'o';
%%# Display
char(-T)

C# - 325 319 chars

using System;class P{static void Main(){var s=Console.ReadLine().Split(' ');
var d=s[0].Split('-');int l=s[1][0]-48,x,y,r,a=int.Parse(d[0]),b=int.Parse(d[1]);
for(y=l;y>=-l;y--)for(x=-l;x<=l;)Console.Write((x==0&&y==0?'o':a<=(r=((int)
(Math.Atan2(y,x)*57.3)+360)%360)&&r<b||r==b%360?
@"-/|\"[r/45%4]:' ')+(x++==l?"\n":""));}}

Newlines not significant.

Answer 4

Mathematica 100 Chars

Out of competition because graphics are too perfect :)

  f[x_-y_ z_]:=Graphics@Table[
                 {EdgeForm@Red,Disk[{0,0},r,{x °,y °}],{r,z,1,-1}]
                 SetAttributes[f,HoldAll]

Invoke with f[30-70 5]

Result

Note

The SetAttributes[f, HoldAll];

is needed because the input

    f[a-b c] 

is otherwise interpreted as

    f[(a-b*c)]

Answer 5

Ruby, 168 characters

Requires Ruby 1.9 to work

s,e,r=gets.scan(/\d+/).map &:to_i;s/=45;e/=45;G=-r..r;G.map{|y|G.map{|x|a=Math.atan2(-y,x)/Math::PI*4%8;print x|y!=0?a==s||a==e%8?'-/|\\'[a%4]:a<s||a>e ?' ':8:?o};puts}

Readable version:

start, _end, radius = gets.scan(/\d+/).map &:to_i
start /= 45
_end /= 45

(-radius..radius).each {|y|
    (-radius..radius).each {|x|
        angle = Math.atan2(-y, x)/Math::PI * 4 % 8
        print x|y != 0 ? angle==start || angle==_end%8 ? '-/|\\'[angle%4] : angle<start || angle>_end ? ' ' : 8 : ?o
    }
    puts
}

Answer 6

C (902 byte)

This doesn't use trigonometric functions (like the original perl version), so it's quite ``bloated''. Anyway, here is my first code-golf submission:

#define V(r) (4*r*r+6*r+3)
#define F for(i=0;i<r;i++)
#define C ;break;case
#define U p-=2*r+2,
#define D p+=2*r+2,
#define R *++p=
#define L *--p=
#define H *p='|';
#define E else if
#define G(a) for(j=0;j<V(r)-1;j++)if(f[j]==i+'0')f[j]=a;
#define O(i) for(i=0;i<2*r+1;i++){
main(int i,char**v){char*p,f[V(8)];
int j,m,e,s,x,y,r;p=*++v;x=atoi(p);while(*p!=45)p++;
char*h="0123";y=atoi(p+1);r=atoi(*++v);
for(p=f+2*r+1;p<f+V(r);p+=2*r+2)*p=10;
*(p-2*r-2)=0;x=x?x/45:x;y/=45;s=0;e=2*r;m=r;p=f;O(i)O(j)
if(j>e)*p=h[0];E(j>m)*p=h[1];E(j>s)*p=h[2];else*p=h[3];p++;}
if(i+1==r){h="7654";m--;e--;}E(i==r){s--;}E(i>r){s--;e++;}
else{s++;e--;}p++;}for(p=f+V(r)/2-1,i=0;i<r;i++)*++p=48;
for(i=0;i<8;i++)if(i>=x&&i<y){G(64);}else G(32);
y=y==8?0:y;q:p=f+V(r)/2-1;*p='o';switch(x){
C 0:F R 45 C 1:F U R 47 C 2:F U H C 3:F U L 92
C 4:F L 45 C 5:F D L 47 C 6:F D H C 7:F D R 92;}
if(y!=8){x=y;y=8;goto q;}puts(f);}

also, the #defines look rather ugly, but they save about 200 bytes so I kept them in, anyway. It is valid ANSI C89/C90 and compiles with very few warnings (two about atoi and puts and two about crippled form of main).
