Say I'm designing a new language for golf or some other esoteric purpose, and I'd like feedback on some design concepts. I feel posting this on SO, Programmers, CS, or pretty much any other site on SE would likely just going to get down-votes or at least side-eyes. Even if not, I think I'd likely...
Some numbers can be represented as perfect powers of other numbers. A number x can be represented as x = base^power for some integer base and power.
Given an integer x you have to find the largest value of power, such that base is also an integer.
Sample Input:
9
Sample Output:
2
The shortest code that finds all unique "sub-palindromes" of a string, that is: any substring with length > 1 that is a palindrome.
eg.1
input: "12131331"
output: "33", "121", "131", "313", "1331"
eg.2
input: "3333"
output: "33", "333", "3333"

As you may or may not know, Valentine's day is getting close. So today, my task for you is:
Write a heart-shaped quine
Rules:
Code should look like an identifyable heart shape. It doesn't have to be perfect, but make sure it resembles a heart as close as you can
Standard Quine rules apply (no...

The most efficient method to compute dot products of a single vector with row vectors stored in an array.
[2, 4, 1] <dot> [[5, 3, 2], [3, 3, 5], ..., [2, 2, 1]]
Result:
[[2, 4, 1] <dot> [5, 3, 2], [2, 4, 1] <dot> [3, 3, 5], ..., [2, 2, 1] <dot> [2, 4, 1]]
I mostly want to see how it could ...
We've got various answers strewn across meta that tell different stories:
On the standard loopholes, we disallow answers that aren't programming languages. This appears to be the most definitive answer of the lot. It has a vote count of 16/-8.
However, on a question that asks "Should answers ...
You've probably heard of Fibonacci numbers. Ya know, that integer sequence that starts with 1, 1, and then each new number is the sum of the last two?
1 1 2 3 5 8 13...
And so on. Challenges about Fibonacci numbers are pretty popular 'round here. But who says that the Fibonacci numbers have to...
Forward-Reverse Even-Odd Quine
code-golf quine
Write a program that takes a single integer as input. If the number is even, output the source code. If the number is odd, output the source code in reverse.
Happy golfing! Shortest code wins!
