99 bottles of beer

From Rosetta Code
Task
99 bottles of beer
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

The beersong

In this puzzle, write code to print out the entire "99 bottles of beer on the wall" song.

For those who do not know the song, the lyrics follow this form:

X bottles of beer on the wall
X bottles of beer
Take one down, pass it around
X-1 bottles of beer on the wall

X-1 bottles of beer on the wall
...
Take one down, pass it around
0 bottles of beer on the wall

Where X and X-1 are replaced by numbers of course. Grammatical support for "1 bottle of beer" is optional. As with any puzzle, try to do it in as creative/concise/comical a way as possible (simple, obvious solutions allowed, too).

AWK

Regular version

If you don't want so many beers, here you can specify the starting amount.
For example, just a sixpack:

<lang awk># usage: gawk -v i=6 -f beersong.awk

function bb(n) { b = " bottles of beer" if( n==1 ) { sub("s","",b) } if( n==0 ) { n="No more" } return n b }

BEGIN { if( !i ) { i = 99 } ow = "on the wall" td = "Take one down, pass it around." print "The beersong:\n" while (i > 0) { printf( "%s %s,\n%s.\n%s\n%s %s.\n\n", bb(i), ow, bb(i), td, bb(--i), ow ) if( i==1 ) sub( "one","it", td ) } print "Go to the store and buy some more!" }</lang>

Output:
The beersong:

99 bottles of beer on the wall,
99 bottles of beer.
Take one down, pass it around.
98 bottles of beer on the wall.

...

3 bottles of beer on the wall,
3 bottles of beer.
Take one down, pass it around.
2 bottles of beer on the wall.

2 bottles of beer on the wall,
2 bottles of beer.
Take one down, pass it around.
1 bottle of beer on the wall.

1 bottle of beer on the wall,
1 bottle of beer.
Take it down, pass it around.
No more bottles of beer on the wall.

Go to the store and buy some more!

The simple solution

<lang c>#include <stdlib.h>

  1. include <stdio.h>

int main(void) {

 unsigned int bottles = 99;
 do
 {
   printf("%u bottles of beer on the wall\n", bottles);
   printf("%u bottles of beer\n", bottles);
   printf("Take one down, pass it around\n");
   printf("%u bottles of beer on the wall\n\n", --bottles);
 } while(bottles > 0);
 return EXIT_SUCCESS;

}</lang>

A recursive solution

<lang c>#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {

       if(argc == 99)
               return 99;
       if(argv[0] != NULL){
               argv[0] = NULL;
               argc = 0;
       }
       argc = main(argc + 1, argv);
       printf("%d bottle%c of beer on the wall\n", argc, argc == 1?'\0': 's');
       printf("%d bottle%c of beer\n", argc, argc == 1?'\0': 's');
       printf("Take one down, pass it around\n"); 
       printf("%d bottle%c of beer on the wall\n\n", argc - 1, (argc - 1) == 1?'\0': 's');
       return argc - 1;

}</lang>

Code golf

<lang c>#include <stdio.h> main(){_=100;while(--_)printf("%i bottle%s of beer in the wall,\n%i bottle%" "s of beer.\nTake one down, pass it round,\n%s%s\n\n",_,_-1?"s":"",_,_-1?"s"

A preprocessor solution

Of course, with the template metaprogramming solution, the program has still do the conversion of numbers to strings at runtime, and those function calls also cost unnecessary time. Couldn't we just compose the complete text at compile time, and just output it at run time? Well, with the preprocessor, that's indeed possible:

<lang c>#include <stdlib.h>

  1. include <stdio.h>
  1. define BOTTLE(nstr) nstr " bottles of beer"
  1. define WALL(nstr) BOTTLE(nstr) " on the wall"
  1. define PART1(nstr) WALL(nstr) "\n" BOTTLE(nstr) \
                   "\nTake one down, pass it around\n"
  1. define PART2(nstr) WALL(nstr) "\n\n"
  1. define MIDDLE(nstr) PART2(nstr) PART1(nstr)
  1. define SONG PART1("100") CD2 PART2("0")
  1. define CD2 CD3("9") CD3("8") CD3("7") CD3("6") CD3("5") \
       CD3("4") CD3("3") CD3("2") CD3("1") CD4("")
  1. define CD3(pre) CD4(pre) MIDDLE(pre "0")
  1. define CD4(pre) MIDDLE(pre "9") MIDDLE(pre "8") MIDDLE(pre "7") \
MIDDLE(pre "6") MIDDLE(pre "5") MIDDLE(pre "4") MIDDLE(pre "3") \
MIDDLE(pre "2") MIDDLE(pre "1")

int main(void) {

 (void) printf(SONG);
 return EXIT_SUCCESS;

}</lang>

An inspection of the generated executable proves that it indeed contains the complete text of the song in one block.

The simple solution

Works with: g++ version 4.8.1

<lang cpp>#include <iostream> using std::cout;

int main() {

 for(int bottles(99); bottles > 0; bottles -= 1){
   cout << bottles << " bottles of beer on the wall\n"
        << bottles << " bottles of beer\n"
        << "Take one down, pass it around\n"
        << bottles - 1 << " bottles of beer on the wall\n\n";
 }

}</lang>

An object-oriented solution

See: 99 Bottles of Beer/C++/Object Oriented

A template metaprogramming solution

Of course, the output of the program always looks the same. One may therefore question why the program has to do all that tedious subtracting during runtime. Couldn't the compiler just generate the code to output the text, with ready-calculated constants? Indeed, it can, and the technique is called template metaprogramming. The following short code gives the text without containing a single variable, let alone a loop:

<lang cpp>#include <iostream>

template<int max, int min> struct bottle_countdown {

 static const int middle = (min + max)/2;
 static void print()
 {
   bottle_countdown<max, middle+1>::print();
   bottle_countdown<middle, min>::print();
 }

};

template<int value> struct bottle_countdown<value, value> {

 static void print()
 {
   std::cout << value << " bottles of beer on the wall\n"
             << value << " bottles of beer\n"
             << "Take one down, pass it around\n"
             << value-1 << " bottles of beer\n\n";
 }

};

int main() {

 bottle_countdown<100, 1>::print();
 return 0;

}</lang>

A Recursive solution

<lang cpp>#include <iostream> using namespace std; void rec(int bottles) { if ( bottles!=0)

{    
    cout << bottles << " bottles of beer on the wall" << endl; 
       cout << bottles << " bottles of beer" << endl;
       cout << "Take one down, pass it around" << endl; 
       cout << --bottles << " bottles of beer on the wall\n" << endl;    
   rec(bottles);
}  

}

int main()

{   

rec(99); system("pause"); return 0; } </lang>

A preprocessor solution

Of course, with the template metaprogramming solution, the program has still do the conversion of numbers to strings at runtime, and those function calls also cost unnecessary time. Couldn't we just compose the complete text at compile time, and just output it at run time? Well, with the preprocessor, that's indeed possible:

<lang cpp>#include <iostream>

  1. include <ostream>
  1. define BOTTLE(nstr) nstr " bottles of beer"
  1. define WALL(nstr) BOTTLE(nstr) " on the wall"
  1. define PART1(nstr) WALL(nstr) "\n" BOTTLE(nstr) \
                   "\nTake one down, pass it around\n"
  1. define PART2(nstr) WALL(nstr) "\n\n"
  1. define MIDDLE(nstr) PART2(nstr) PART1(nstr)
  1. define SONG PART1("100") CD2 PART2("0")
  1. define CD2 CD3("9") CD3("8") CD3("7") CD3("6") CD3("5") \
       CD3("4") CD3("3") CD3("2") CD3("1") CD4("")
  1. define CD3(pre) CD4(pre) MIDDLE(pre "0")
  1. define CD4(pre) MIDDLE(pre "9") MIDDLE(pre "8") MIDDLE(pre "7") \
MIDDLE(pre "6") MIDDLE(pre "5") MIDDLE(pre "4") MIDDLE(pre "3") \
MIDDLE(pre "2") MIDDLE(pre "1")

int main() {

 std::cout << SONG;
 return 0;

CTFE Solution

CTFE (Compile-Time Function Execution) is a feature of D that allows for pure functions of arbitrary complexity to be completely evaluated at compile time when every parameter is known. Note that this is distinct from the template meta-programming tricks used by some other languages, and this bottles() function could just as easily be executed during run-time. The compiled result of this program simply prints the pre-generated lyrics to the song, using a standard compiler pragma directive.

<lang d>import std.stdio, std.conv;

string bottles(in size_t num) pure {

   static string bottlesRecurse(in size_t num) pure {
       return num.text ~ " bottles of beer on the wall,\n"
              ~ num.text ~ " bottles of beer!\n"
              ~ "Take one down, pass it around,\n"
              ~ (num - 1).text ~ " bottle" ~ ((num - 1 == 1) ? "" : "s")
              ~ " of beer on the wall.\n\n"
              ~ ((num > 2)
                 ? bottlesRecurse(num - 1)
                 : "1 bottle of beer on the wall,\n"
                 ~ "1 bottle of beer!\n"
                 ~ "Take one down, pass it around,\n"
                 ~ "No bottles of beer on the wall!\n\n");
   }
   return bottlesRecurse(num)
          ~ "Go to the store and buy some more...\n"

Frink

Frink tracks units of measure through all calculations. It has a large library of built-in units of measure, including volume. The following program prints out the remaining volume of beer (assuming we start with 99 bottles of beer, each containing 12 fluid ounces) in different random units of volume, never repeating a unit. <lang frink> units = array[units[volume]] showApproximations[false]

for n = 99 to 0 step -1 {

  unit = units.removeRandom[]
  str = getBottleString[n, unit]
  
  println["$str of beer on the wall, $str."]
  if (n == 0)
     println["Go to the store and buy some more, 99 bottles of beer on the wall."]
  else
     println["Take one down and pass it around, " + getBottleString[n-1, unit] + " on the wall.\n"]

}

getBottleString[n, unit] := format[n*12 floz, unit, 6] + "s" </lang>

Groovy

Basic Solution

With a closure to handle special cardinalities of bottles. <lang groovy>def bottles = { "${it==0 ? 'No more' : it} bottle${it==1 ?  : 's' }" }

99.downto(1) { i ->

   print """

${bottles(i)} of beer on the wall ${bottles(i)} of beer Take one down, pass it around ${bottles(i-1)} of beer on the wall """ }</lang>

Single Print Version

Uses a single print algorithm for all four lines. Handles cardinality on bottles, uses 'No more' instead of 0. <lang groovy>298.downto(2) {

   def (m,d) = [it%3,(int)it/3]
   print "${m==1?'\n':}${d?:'No more'} bottle${d!=1?'s':} of beer" +
         "${m?' on the wall':'\nTake one down, pass it around'}\n"

}</lang>

Bottomless Beer Solution

Using more closures to create a richer lyrical experience. <lang groovy>def bottles = { "${it==0 ? 'No more' : it} bottle${it==1 ?  : 's' }" }

def initialState = {

 """${result(it)}

${resultShort(it)}""" }

def act = {

 it > 0 ?
     "Take ${it==1 ? 'it' : 'one'} down, pass it around" :
     "Go to the store, buy some more"

}

def delta = { it > 0 ? -1 : 99 }

def resultShort = { "${bottles(it)} of beer" }

def result = { "${resultShort(it)} on the wall" }

// //// uncomment commented lines to create endless drunken binge //// // // while (true) { 99.downto(0) { i ->

 print """

${initialState(i)} ${act(i)} ${result(i+delta(i))} """ } // Thread.sleep(1000) // }</lang>

GUISS

We will just use the calculator and keep taking one off. We do not get the full text here, but the number of the calculator shows how many bottles we still have left to drink:

<lang guiss>Start,Programs,Accessories,Calculator,Button:9,Button:9, Button:[hyphen],Button:1,Button:[equals],Button:[hyphen],Button:1,Button:[equals], Button:[hyphen],Button:1,Button:[equals],Button:[hyphen],Button:1,Button:[equals], Button:[hyphen],Button:1,Button:[equals],Button:[hyphen],Button:1,Button:[equals], Button:[hyphen],Button:1,Button:[equals],Button:[hyphen],Button:1,Button:[equals] </lang> We haven't drank all of the bottles at this point, but we can keep going, if we want.

Haskell

A relatively concise solution:

<lang haskell>main = mapM_ (putStrLn . beer) [99, 98 .. 0] beer 1 = "1 bottle of beer on the wall\n1 bottle of beer\nTake one down, pass it around" beer 0 = "better go to the store and buy some more." beer v = show v ++ " bottles of beer on the wall\n"

               ++ show v 
               ++" bottles of beer\nTake one down, pass it around\n" 
               ++ head (lines $ beer $ v-1) ++ "\n"</lang>

As a list comprehension:

<lang haskell>import qualified Char

main = putStr $ concat

  [up (bob n) ++ wall ++ ", " ++ bob n ++ ".\n" ++
   pass n ++ bob (n - 1) ++ wall ++ ".\n\n" |
   n <- [99, 98 .. 0]]
  where bob n = (num n) ++ " bottle" ++ (s n) ++ " of beer"
        wall = " on the wall"
        pass 0 = "Go to the store and buy some more, "
        pass _ = "Take one down and pass it around, "
        up (x : xs) = Char.toUpper x : xs
        num (-1) = "99"
        num 0    = "no more"
        num n    = show n
        s 1 = ""
        s _ = "s"</lang>

Another version, which uses a Writer monad to collect each part of the song. It also uses Template Haskell to generate the song at compile time.

<lang haskell>{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-} -- build with "ghc --make beer.hs" module Main where import Language.Haskell.TH import Control.Monad.Writer

-- This is calculated at compile time, and is equivalent to -- songString = "99 bottles of beer on the wall\n99 bottles..." songString =

   $(let
        sing = tell -- we can't sing very well...
        someBottles 1 = "1 bottle of beer "
        someBottles n = show n ++ " bottles of beer "
        bottlesOfBeer n = (someBottles n ++) 
        verse n = do
          sing $ n `bottlesOfBeer` "on the wall\n"
          sing $ n `bottlesOfBeer` "\n"
          sing $ "Take one down, pass it around\n"
          sing $ (n - 1) `bottlesOfBeer` "on the wall\n\n"
        song = execWriter $ mapM_ verse [99,98..1]
     in return $ LitE $ StringL $ song)

main = putStr songString</lang>

Haxe

Simple solution

<lang haxe>class RosettaDemo {

   static public function main()
   {
       singBottlesOfBeer(100);
   }
   static function singBottlesOfBeer(bottles : Int)
   {
       var plural : String = 's';
       while (bottles >= 1)
       {
           Sys.println(bottles + " bottle" + plural + " of beer on the wall,");
           Sys.println(bottles + " bottle" + plural + " of beer!");
           Sys.println("Take one down, pass it around,");
           if (bottles - 1 == 1)
           {
               plural = ;
           }
           if (bottles > 1)
           {
               Sys.println(bottles-1 + " bottle" + plural + " of beer on the wall!\n");
           }
           else
           {
               Sys.println("No more bottles of beer on the wall!");
           }
           bottles--;
       }
   }

}</lang>

Macro solution

All those counters, loops and conditinal blocks are pretty expensive in runtime compared to single print of fully inlined text of the song. Let's generate that print with macro.

<lang haxe>class Bottles {

   static public function main () : Void {
       singBottlesOfBeer(100);
   }


   macro static public function singBottlesOfBeer (bottles:Int) {
       var lines = [];
       var s : String = 's';
       var song : String = ;
       while( bottles >= 1 ){
           song += '$bottles bottle$s of beer on the wall,\n';
           song += '$bottles bottle$s of beer!\n';
           song += 'Take one down, pass it around,\n';
           bottles --;
           if( bottles > 1 ){
               song += '$bottles bottles of beer on the wall!\n\n';
           }else if( bottles == 1 ){
               s = ;
               song += '$bottles bottle of beer on the wall!\n\n';
           }else{
               song += 'No more bottles of beer on the wall!\n';
           }
       }
       return macro Sys.print($v{song});
   }

When play begins: repeat with iteration running from 1 to 99: let N be 100 - iteration; say "[N] bottle[s] of beer on the wall[line break]"; say "[N] bottle[s] of beer[line break]"; say "Take one down, pass it around[line break]"; say "[N - 1] bottle[s] of beer on the wall[paragraph break]"; end the story.</lang>

World model solution

This solution uses in-game objects to represent the wall and the bottles.

<lang inform7>Beer Hall is a room.

The plural of bottle of beer is bottles of beer. A bottle of beer is a kind of thing.

The wall is a scenery supporter in Beer Hall. 99 bottles of beer are on the wall.

When play begins: while something is on the wall: say "[what's on the wall] on the wall[line break]"; say "[what's on the wall][line break]"; say "Take one down, pass it around[line break]"; remove a random thing on the wall from play; say "[what's on the wall] on the wall[paragraph break]"; end the story.

To say what's on the wall: if more than one thing is on the wall, say list of things on the wall; otherwise say "[number of things on the wall in words] bottle[s] of beer".</lang>

A one-line version

Since MAXscript is an expression based language (everything returns a value), it is relatively easy to write long expressions that are only one line long. the following single-line snippet (broken for clarity on the webpage) produces a grammatically correct printout of the song.

<lang maxscript>for i = 99 to 1 by -1 do (print (i as string + (if i == 1 then " bottle" else " bottles") + " of beer on the wall\n" + i as string +\ (if i == 1 then " bottle" else " bottles") + " of beer\nTake one down, pass it around\n" + (i - 1) as string + (if i - 1 == 1 then "\ bottle" else " bottles") + " of beer on the wall\n" + (if i - 1 == 0 then "\nno more beer" else "")))</lang>

Macro Processing generalized version in 99 lines

This version demonstrates the macro text replacement capabilities central to ML/I.

The code defines a macro

Sing n containers of contents somewhere : deed ! replenish .

where the text (macro call)

Sing 99 bottles of beer on the wall: Take one down, pass it around ! Go to the store and buy some more .

is macro substituted with the specified 99 bottles of beer song. The text

Sing 7 bottles of Armagnac on the table: Take a swig, throw it down ! Emilie vists, she brings some more .

would be substituted with a shorter, more expensive, less social and sexier lyric.

Internal macros define English word replacements for decimal numbers from 0 to 99.

Order

These examples are taken directly from a much longer tutorial in the Order documentation, which explains the construction of the solution to this problem in great detail.

"Pure" Order

This solution uses only Order language constructs to generate and manipulate tokens: <lang c>#include "order/interpreter.h"

ORDER_PP (8let((8B, 8fn(8N,

              8cond((8greater(8N, 1),
                     8separate(8N, 8quote(bottles)))
                    (8equal(8N, 1),
                     8quote(1 bottle))
                    (8else,
                     8quote(no more bottles))))),
     8for_each_in_range
     (8fn(8N,
          8print(8ap(8B, 8N) (of beer on the wall,) 8space
                 8ap(8B, 8N) (of beer,) 8space
                 (take one down, pass it around,) 8space
                 8ap(8B, 8dec(8N)) (of beer on the wall.))),
      100, 1)))</lang>

C Preprocessor

...but since most of the logic is simple substitution, it makes more sense (and is significantly more efficient) to make the C Preprocessor do most of the work without the help of the Order interpreter. This version shows how to integrate normal C Preprocessor macros into an Order program: <lang c>#include "order/interpreter.h"

  1. define GEN_phrase(N_bottles, N_minus_1_bottles) \
 N_bottles of beer on the wall,                    \
 N_bottles of beer, take one down, pass it around, \
 N_minus_1_bottles of beer on the wall.
  1. define ORDER_PP_DEF_8bottles \

ORDER_PP_FN(8fn(8N, \

               8cond((8greater(8N, 1),                \
                      8separate(8N, 8quote(bottles))) \
                     (8equal(8N, 1),                  \
                      8quote(1 bottle))               \
                     (8else,                          \
                      8quote(no more bottles)))))

ORDER_PP(8for_each_in_range

        (8fn(8N,
             8emit(8quote(GEN_phrase),
                   8tuple(8bottles(8N),
                          8bottles(8dec(8N))))),
         100, 1))
  1. undef GEN_phrase</lang>

Either example could obviously also form the core of a C solution (demonstrating the intended use of Order).

Constraint Programming

Note: In real life, you would never solve a simple iterative task like this with constraint programming. This is just for fun. <lang oz>declare

 %% describe the possible solutions of the beer 'puzzle'
 proc {BeerDescription Solution}
    N = {FD.int 1#99} %% N is an integer in [1, 99]
 in
   %% distribute starting with highest value
   {FD.distribute generic(value:max) [N]}
    Solution =
    {Bottles N}#" of beer on the wall\n"#
    {Bottles N}#" bottles of beer\n"#
    "Take one down, pass it around\n"#
    {Bottles N-1}#" of beer on the wall\n"
 end
 %% pluralization
 proc {Bottles N Txt}
    cond N = 1 then Txt ="1 bottle"
    else Txt = N#" bottles"
    end
 end

in

 %% show all solutions to the 'puzzle'
 {ForAll {SearchAll BeerDescription}
  System.showInfo}</lang>

Iterative

<lang oz>declare

 end</lang>

PARI/GP

<lang parigp>forstep(n=99,3,-1,

 print(n" bottles of beer on the wall");
 print(n" bottles of beer");
 print("Take one down, pass it around");

Pascal

See 99 Bottles of Beer/Pascal

Perl

<lang perl>#!/usr/bin/perl -w

my $verse = <<"VERSE"; 100 bottles of beer on the wall, 100 bottles of beer! Take one down, pass it around! 99 bottles of beer on the wall!

VERSE

{

   $verse =~ s/(\d+)/$1-1/ge;
   $verse =~ s/\b1 bottles/1 bottle/g;
   my $done = $verse =~ s/\b0 bottle/No bottles/g; # if we make this replacement, we're also done.
   print $verse;
   redo unless $done;

}</lang>

Alternatively: <lang perl>for $n (reverse(0..99)) {

   $bottles = sprintf("%s bottle%s of beer on the wall\n",(($n==0)?"No":$n), (($n==1)?"":"s"));
   print( (($n==99)?"":"$bottles\n") . 

(($n==0)?"":(substr(${bottles}x2,0,-12) . "\nTake one down, pass it around\n")) ); }</lang>

Correct grammar and nice spacing in modern perl: <lang perl>use 5.10.0;

$num = 99; while ($num > 0) {

   my $s = "s" unless ($num == 1);
   say "$num bottle$s of beer on the wall, $num bottle$s of beer";
   $num--;
   my $s = "s" unless ($num == 1); 
   $num = "No more" if ($num == 0);
   say "Take one down, pass it around, $num bottle$s of beer on the wall\n"

}

say "No more bottles of beer on the wall, no more bottles of beer."; say "Go to the store and buy some more, 99 bottles of beer on the wall.";</lang>

Using perl5 as a DSL factory leveraging $_'s global nature: <lang perl>

  1. !/usr/bin/env perl

use strict; use warnings;

sub bottles() { sprintf qq{%s bottle%s of beer}

              , $_ || 'No'
              , $_==1 ?  : 's';
              }

sub store() { $_=99; qq{Go to the store, buy some more...\n}; } sub wall() { qq{ on the wall\n} } sub take() { $_-- ? qq{Take one down, pass it around\n} : store } do { print bottles, wall

        , bottles, qq{\n}
        , take
        , bottles, qq{\n\n}
  } for reverse 0..99;</lang>

Perl 6

A Simple Way

<lang perl6>my $b = 99;

sub b($b) {

   "$b bottle{'s'.substr($b == 1)} of beer";

}

repeat while --$b {

   .say for "&b($b) on the wall",
            b($b),
            'Take one down, pass it around',
            "&b($b-1) on the wall",
            ;

} </lang>

A Clearer Way

Similar to "A Simple Way", but with proper variable and subroutine naming, declarator documentation, strongly-typed function definition, default parameters, better code reuse, and clearer external ternary logic instead of misusing substr side-effects within an interpolated string.

<lang perl6>

  1. = Sings a verse about a certian number of beers, possibly on a wall.

sub sing(

   Int $number, #= Number of bottles of beer.
   Bool $has_wall = False #= Mention that the beers are on a wall?

) {

   my $quantity = $number == 0 ?? "No more" !! $number;
   my $plural = $number == 1 ?? "" !! "s";
   my $wall = $has_wall ?? " on the wall" !! "";
   return "{$quantity} bottle{$plural} of beer{$wall}"

}

for 99...1 -> $bottles {

   .say for
       sing($bottles, True),
       sing($bottles),
       "Take one down, pass it around",
       sing($bottles-1, True),
       "";

} </lang>

A More Extravagant Way

Works with: Rakudo version #22 "Thousand Oaks"

<lang perl6>my @quantities = (99 ... 1), 'No more', 99; my @bottles = 'bottles' xx 98, 'bottle', 'bottles' xx 2; my @actions = 'Take one down, pass it around' xx 99,

             'Go to the store, buy some more';

for @quantities Z @bottles Z @actions Z

   @quantities[1 .. *] Z @bottles[1 .. *]
   -> $a, $b, $c, $d, $e {
   say "$a $b of beer on the wall";
   say "$a $b of beer";
   say $c;
   say "$d $e of beer on the wall\n";

}</lang>

PHL

Translation of: C

<lang phl>module bottles; extern printf;

 @Integer bottles = 99;
 do
 {
   printf("%u bottles of beer on the wall\n", bottles);
   printf("%u bottles of beer\n", bottles);

   bottles = bottles::dec;
   printf("%u bottles of beer on the wall\n\n", bottles);

PHP

<lang php><?php $plural = 's'; foreach (range(99, 1) as $i) {

   echo "$i bottle$plural of beer on the wall,\n";
   echo "$i bottle$plural of beer!\n";
   echo "Take one down, pass it around!\n";
   if ($i - 1 == 1)
       $plural = ;
   
   if ($i > 1)
       echo ($i - 1) . " bottle$plural of beer on the wall!\n\n";
   else
       echo "No more bottles of beer on the wall!\n";

} ?></lang>

shorter way

<lang php><?php foreach(range(99,1) as $i) {

   $p = ($i>1)?"s":"";
   echo <<< EOV

$i bottle$p of beer on the wall $i bottle$p of beer Take one down, pass it around


EOV; } echo "No more Bottles of beer on the wall"; ?></lang>

modifing way:

<lang php><?php $verse = <<<VERSE 100 bottles of beer on the wall, 100 bottles of beer! Take one down, pass it around! 99 bottles of beer on the wall!


VERSE;

foreach (range(1,99) as $i) { // loop 99 times

   $verse = preg_replace('/\d+/e', '$0 - 1', $verse);
   $verse = preg_replace('/\b1 bottles/', '1 bottle', $verse);
   $verse = preg_replace('/\b0 bottle/', 'No bottles', $verse);
   echo $verse;

} ?></lang>

ultra compact alternative

supports grammar and has no leading and trailing new lines or spaces. Also one does not have to close the <?php tag, it is even recommended not to close it, if closing it is not necessary <lang php><?php

 for($i=100;$i>0;$i--){
   $p2=$i." bottle".(($i>1)?"s":"")." of beer";
   $p1=$p2." on the wall\n";
   $p3="Take one down, pass it around\n";
   echo (($i<100)?$p1."\n":"").$p1.$p2."\n".$p3.(($i<2)?($i-1).substr($p1,1,28):"");
 }</lang>

gettext alternative

supports grammar and translations.

<lang php><?php

$bottles = 99;

while ($bottles > 0) { printf(ngettext('%d bottle', '%d bottles', $bottles) . " of beer on the wall\n", $bottles); //X bottles of beer on the wall printf(ngettext('%d bottle', '%d bottles', $bottles) . " of beer\n", $bottles); //X bottles of beer printf("Take one down, pass it around\n"); //Take one down, pass it around

$bottles--;

if ($bottles > 0) { printf(ngettext('%d bottle', '%d bottles', $bottles) . " of beer on the wall\n\n", $bottles); //X bottles of beer on the wall } } printf('No more bottles of beer on the wall'); //No more bottles of beer on the wall</lang>

                                  no bottles of beer on the wall

This one prints with proper grammar. "Bottles" changed to "bottle" at the end of the 2 line, and throughout the 1 line. 0 changed to "No" in the last line:

<lang REBOL>for i 99 1 -1 [

    x: rejoin [ 
        i b: " bottles of beer" o: " on the wall. " i b 
        ". Take one down, pass it around. " (i - 1) b o "^/" 
    ] 
    r: :replace j: "bottles" k: "bottle" 
    switch i [1 [r x j k r at x 10 j k r x "0" "No"] 2 [r at x 40 j k]] 
    print x 

] halt</lang>

Here's a simple 1 line console version:

TXR

The (range 99 -1 -1) expression produces a lazy list of integers from 99 down to -1. The mapcar* function lazily maps these numbers to strings, and the rest of the code treats this lazy list as text stream to process, extracting the numbers with some pattern matching cases and interpolating them into the song's text. Functional programming with lazy semantics meets text processing, pattern matching and here documents.

<lang txr>@(next :list @(mapcar* (fun tostring) (range 99 -1 -1))) @(collect) @number @ (trailer) @number_less_1 @ (cases) @ (bind number "1") @ (output) 1 bottle of beer one the wall 1 bottle of beer @ (end) @ (or) @ (output) @number bottles of beer one the wall @number bottles of beer @ (end) @ (end) @ (cases) @ (bind number "0") @ (output) Go to the store and get some more, 99 bottles of beer on the wall!

@ (end) @ (or) @ (output) Take one down and pass it around @number_less_1 bottles of beer on the wall

@ (end) @ (end) @(end)</lang>

To make the song repeat indefinitely, change the first line to:

<lang txr>@(next :list @(mapcar* (fun tostring) (repeat (range 99 0 -1))))</lang>

Now it's processing an infinite lazy lists consisting of repetitions of the integer sequences 99 98 ... 0.
