Python Infinite Loop

Points: 7 (partial)

Time limit: 2.0s

Memory limit: 64M

Problem type

Allowed languages

Python

Almost everywhere on this site, we have always held infinite loops under poor regard. This is very unfair to infinite loops because they have their use too! Here, we compensate for the prejudice against them by awarding you points for creating one. However, there is a catch. You must do it as short as possible.

Input Specification

There are no inputs.

Output Specification

There are no outputs.

Scoring

Your score will be $\left(\frac 9 N\right)^5 \times 7$ ~\left(\frac 9 N\right)^5 \times 7~, where $N$ ~N~ is the length of your program in bytes, if your program works. Otherwise, it will receive a score of zero.

:O Why are people ACing but not receiving the points? e.g. https://dmoj.ca/submission/1077061

Your score will be $(\frac9 N)^5×7$ ~ (\frac9 N)^5×7 ~, where $N$ ~N~ is the length of your program in bytes, if your program works. Otherwise, it will receive a score of zero.

I have rewritten the problem to use the new judge, fixing a couple of bugs on the way.

How is it possible to get TLE?

I find it interesting how the fastest python "solution" still takes 0.02 seconds.

We removed certain functionality from the judge used exclusively to make this problem; it will be reimplemented in a better way at some later date.

Evidently, no, still not up. Rip.

Is the length measured in characters, lines, expressions, etc.?

Make an infinite loop with as little code as possible.

If you output anything, you crash!
