Why on earth would it convert this:

printable_chars = { 33, 34, 35 [...and another few hundred ]

to printable_chars = { 33, 34, 35 [...and another few hundred lines ]



meant to be:

  printable_chars = { 33, 34, 35 [...and another few hundred ]
to

  printable_chars = {  
    33, 
    34, 
    35 
    [...and another few hundred lines ]
    }


Those look the same to me.


Perhaps your parent failed to add double-newlines and HN's formatting ate their newlines, but notice the extra word "lines" at the end.


Because I'm dumb. :-( First line was a single line The next line was multiple lines as per https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19944722 above.
