Sandbox Note: Haven't thought of a title
In this challenge, you will be writing programs that when directly appended to the previous program, will output the associated number, if that program is run directly, it should output the next program in the sequence
Example
Let's say my programs ...
Pyth, 23 bytes
VO6"*click*" w;"*BANG!*
Really simple. A random number of iterations 0 - 5 display click and request a line of input, followed by a bang at the end.
What general tips do you have for golfing in Prolog? I am looking for ideas that can be applied to code golf problems in general that are at least somewhat specific to Prolog (e.g. one letter variables is not specific to Prolog to reduce the size of programs).
Please indicate in your tips if it...
Let's assume Christmas is over.
Yes, how much, not how many...
As we all know, a large present is far better than a small one. Therefore, the value of the presents should always be measured in total volume, not number of presents, weight or even combined price.
As it's frowned upon to compa...
Convert to the xkcd date format
code-golfdateascii-art
In his xkcd about the ISO 8601 standard date format Randall snuck in a rather curious alternative notation:
The large numbers are all the digits that appear in the current date, and the small numbers are 1-based indices of the occurrence...
A Caesar shift is probably something we're all familiar with.
(You might be even doing it as a homework task. If so, please don't copy these answers, your teacher almost certainly doesn't want anything like the answers here.)
Just in case you aren't, a Caesar shift is a very simple form of cip...

Inverse Champernowne Substrings
The Champernowne Constant is the irrational number 0.1234567891011... extending ad infinum.
We've done a question about it before. But this question is about its reciprocal, known as the Inverse Champernowne Constant. This is approximately 8.10000007.
Given a ...
I was thinking about a challenge on wrapping time.
I am a member here for 33 days now. I would have expected for the date to wrap to 1 month.
The challenge would be to write a code to do that, given a joining date.
Round to the nearest full unit.
Example:
In: 2015-12-10
Out: 8 Days
In: 2015-...
"Counter" is a language I've created for the purpose of this question.
Rules
Commands are read from left to right from the first character.
A program is written in exactly one line.
Data is stored in counters. At the start, there is exactly one counter. More can be created and deleted.
A count...
I just voted on an answer and got this:
Daily vote limit reached; vote again in 8 hours.
You haven't voted on questions in a while; questions need votes too!
The idea of the message itself makes sense (putting aside the fact that by the very nature of the Programming Puzzles & Cod...
Broken FizzBuzz - Greg Is Confused underhanded popularity-contest
(FizzBuzz suggested by quartata in chat)
Meet Greg. Greg is a programmer. He deals with checking programs to see if they work. If they don't, he tries to find why.
Greg is rather new to programming and understands the basics, bu...
Draw a program that will write to STDOUT n times a string that contains a dot . at the location of the walker. The program also needs to write a line every s seconds (or wait s seconds after each line).
A random walk is a mathematical formalization of a path that consists of a succession of rand...
