@SandboxPosts i just posted this challenge suggestion. i would love if people could read it and leave feedback in the comments
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 30, 2022 20:34
otherwise im pretty sure its ready to post

ive made a small change to my challenge adding leeway for floating point inaccuracies. does anyone have any more feeedback on my challenge proposal? codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/a/24706/67809

i suppose the question of "is this ready to post to main?" cannot definitively be answered without posting it, unfortunately
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:58
alright. those criteria are concrete enough for me. ill check back in a few days for suggestions
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:56
maybe my question would be better as a more coherent meta post. let me know
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:56
still im not quite clear on this. how can i determine if i have enough feedback? and should i post multiple times asking for feedback?
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:53
alright. good to know
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:53
i have posted several challenges before, and it seems pretty highly variable how much feedback you can get in X days. should i be linking it in here every day or so to request feedback until its ready to post?
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:52
im still not going to post today. just wondering
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:52
@RadvylfPrograms so what about with feedback? and do up votes combined with a lack of criticism constitute positive feedback?
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:49
yeah lol 7 years
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:48
there are various opinions on the topic it seems. in the sandbox faq the top answer recommends 72 hours
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:47
im fine with waiting. however, i see a lot of challenges that are posted very soon after their sandbox, so maybe this should be standardized a little more rigidly?
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 15:45
@SandboxPosts should i go ahead and post this challenge? i know its early, but 4 votes in such a timeframe seems quite good
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:52
i dont have the deepest knowledge of group theory so please correct me if im wrong
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:52
is this problem possible for all string lengths? if the function represents a permutation of N characters, then the problem (i think) is equivalent to finding an element of the symmetric group S_N whos order is 2N. however, not every symmetric group has such an element
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:20
no good reason not to as far as i can tell
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:17
if you missed it im sure others will as well
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:16
should i bold the condition that n>0?
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:11
i even considered submitting the sequence to OEIS, but i dont have a preexisting account
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:10
it doesnt seem as though generating the first N collatz encodings, or all of them would get any shorter answers than the current specification
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:09
i thought about making it a sequence challenge, but i dont think it would function any differently
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:09
thanks!
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:08
im pretty sure it hasnt been done before, but there are quite a few "collatz" themed code golf challenges
EphraimRuttenberg
Apr 29, 2022 14:07
@SandboxPosts if people could check out my sandbox proposal and give feedback, it would be greatly appreciated!

EphraimRuttenberg
Mar 24, 2022 18:46

EphraimRuttenberg
Mar 24, 2022 18:46

EphraimRuttenberg
Mar 24, 2022 18:45
