 		 #140544 - my 36
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I know this is no better than the current top, but please note the careful optimisation to include only one literal number, which is NOT 8 (nor --8 or ++8):
Save This Code
UC r,i=1;WH(r+=c&i?r++:r,i+=i);RT r;
I admit I just learned one more True-C feature: the comma operator. Thanks, Chris!

Without this, my best was 39 (and used 2 literals :-( ):
Save This Code
UC r,i=0;WH(i+=i?i:1)r+=c&i?r++:r;RT r;

                                                Yes, it's much more "self-documenting"            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    Singular?            01/01/70 00:00
