Q: a few signposts

msh210 Assign an integer (1 through 16) to each cell so that: 16 is in the cell with the star; and each integer's arrow points to its successor (i.e. the next integer), though not necessarily in the adjacent cell. Assume all arrows are vertical, horizontal, or at a 45° angle. (This is what Simon Tat...

that was a fun one to do. A shame there's already 3 answers there :p

Do any language have brace [) (] etc?
For what feature? Is it a range syntax?
For whatever, though reasonable as range
I don't think I have seen any
cursed language idea: Brain-Flak++, where an open-close pair can be different kinds of brackets, allowing 16 different functions instead of 4
@hyper-neutrino Any reason not to use the consensus for output?
06:12
remind me what that is, it's been too long since I've written any challenge

A: Default policy for output in decision problems

BubblerTruthy/falsy using your language's convention (swapping allowed), or two distinct values to represent true/false respectively You can choose to output truthy/falsy using your language's convention (swapping is allowed), or use two distinct, fixed values to represent true (affirmative) or false (...

ah I see
(also mentioned in tag info)
oh right, it's cuz I took it from here lol
06:14
alright, updated
other than that, looks good
meant to read the challenge, instead just played the game for several minutes

damn you hyper
lmao
I only started playing this game because I've seen a couple of people playing a different game on this website (フルーツボックス / fruit box) and so I tried it out and then decided to look at some of the other games
mm
i kinda wish it was without time limit and the goal was to clear it
06:33
that's exactly what the code golf challenge asks for
right but i can't play the challenge can i? :P

Q: Create a cactus from words

Kevin CruijssenIntroduction: A typical cartoonish cactus usually looks like this: One big stem in the middle, with some upside down L-shaped branches sticking out. We'll use this general shape for this challenge. Challenge: Given a pair of words, create an ASCII-art cactus with two upside down alphabets as ste...

If ~a means not and a~&b mean nand, then a~&~b means imp, which looks weird

Spent longer than I'd care to admit playing that game
The board generation's... interesting. It feels like it's more than random but I'm not sure if it's designed to be that way or just works out like that

(context: that game hyper linked - gamesaien.com/game/color_tiles. I got 183 and I'm going to sleep)

best i got was 168 or smth before giving up and switching to an open source version of Bejeweled I found two years ago

@hyper-neutrino Two bytes in Pip (Va) with an even more contrived input format: Polish notation where the args must be wrapped in [], values are v, i, and o, and operations are N, M, $CM, and $|. Like you, I'm not going to post an answer unless/until I write a non-eval solution.
can the top of the homepage right now please be deleted?

Q: nimi ale lon toki pona! (Every word in Toki Pona!)

3-1-4-One-Five"nimi ale lon toki pona" is a song by YouTuber jan Misali which lists 137 common words in the constructed language Toki Pona. This challenge is not a duplicate of "How high can you count?" or "Alphabet printing challenge" because instead of numbers or single characters, it outputs random (to many...

having fun treating chef as a compile target
currently making smth like a high level assembly language for it, maybe will make a proper language one day
trying to claim this bounty by making a whole new programming language
18:54
A while back I was messing around with C -> asm2bf -> bf -> Acc!! for a certain bounty of DLosc's, but it would've been ridiculously slow even if I had figured it out
19:34
I seriously doubt this is possible. Before even encoding the data in unique ways you need a language that can output/return/print in 137 ways using unique sets of bytes. Only languages that print by default even have a hope. — Jonathan Allan 1 hour ago

@NewPosts Also, an interesting twist to this sort of challenge could be allowing subsets to share some set of characters as long as it's impossible to complete the task within only that set (esp. the turing-completeness one)
