Make title clearer and add default rules tag
  • Default limits (Title must be more than 15 non-whitespace characters long)
  • Default minimum required precision and supported size for inputs
For challenges that require a input, what is the maximum a solution has to support, if not further specified by the challenge author?

Lets say the input is a string, how long can of a string has to be accepted? I assume it isn't infinite since that would eliminate most programming languages and all real world implementations of all programming languages. Same for other arrays/lists.

For integers, is there a maximum value a solution has to support?

For real numbers, is there a maximum precision or a minimum error that needs to be supported?


For challenges that require a growing output, like [this one](https://codegolf.codidact.com/posts/286280), what is the maximum amount a solution has to output before it fails?
