Code Golf

I feel it'd be a good idea to require, or at least heavily encourage, that challenges include an example, ungolfed, readable solution in a non-golf language like Javascript, C, Rust, or Python.

This would augment the challenge's description with a known-working solution contestants can use as a guide, and would make more complex challenges more approachable.
