The solar year is 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, 45 seconds, and 138 milliseconds, according to this video. With the current Gregorian calendar the rules for leap years are as follows:
if year is divisible by 400, LEAP YEAR
else if year is divisible by 100, COMMON YEAR
else if year is divis...

4-state barcodes
Many postal services (Royal Mail UK, Canada Post, US Mail, etc) use 4-state barcodes to encode information about their mail. Rendered in ASCII, it may look something like this:

@DJMcMayhem That's true, but I'm trying to get it closer to what postal services actually do
There's normally a start/stop sequence
And it will allow me to make a secondary challenge... given one of the barcodes, parse it, however it may be upside down (hence you need to check which way to read it)
@DJMcMayhem The way that Royal Mail UK does it is by starting with a 3 and ending with a 1 (I think), which cuts off two bars

Given a finite list of unique integral points in the plane, find a polygon whose vertices are exactly those points, which does not self intersect.
Details
As input you can take e.g. two lists with each the x- and y-coordinates or a list of pairs.
The input list contain...
@Pavel The first phase (live within the next few days, hopefully) adds seven primitives, one system utility function, various smaller language enhancements, multi-line functions (although somewhat awkward to create), and ability to import (white-listed) functions from standard libraries. Phase two (sometime next year, probably) will have a complete overhaul of the interface (including mobile UI), saving and loading, and maybe more.
@Pavel There is no supplied workspace called StdLib, but we do supply a host of workspaces with all kinds of useful utilities like Morse decoding/encoding and BF evaluation.
@Pavel It is. A default install also has GUI examples like Spider solitaire, a juggling pattern visualiser, and a 3D anaglyph turtle graphics utility. You also get plenty of poetry, musings, a maze generator, Mastermind ("cows and bulls"), a music playlist generator, a Lisp evaluator, …

You Earthlings perplex with your separate

ridiculous illusion of self and its paltry
palette of concepts and primitive single
mode of abstraction which severely limits
what you are able to conceive let alone to
label with your puny languages in order to
communicate poorly within small subsets of
your barely sentient species but what irks
most of all is your inability to perceive

@HyperNeutrino Or just inject .message{font-weight:bold}, but I was more thinking of the consequences than the looks. Bold text would suffer inflation (and we would probably all get banned). On the other hand, you could then de-emphasise text.
