A: Compute the determinant [Python 3], 29 bytes import numpy numpy.linalg.det Yeah, this is really boring, but I'm curious if this can be beat in Python. Try it online! (more) |

A: My house is destroyed! Can you make me one? Canvas, 9 7 bytes #＊⌐⤢ｎ↔ｎ -2 bytes thanks to @Razetime Uh I don't really know how to use Canvas - what I think this does is create the vertical wall, then half the horizontal one, then concatneate and mirror them. Try it here! (more) |

I don't think fastest-code kolmogorov complexity makes sense... there really is almost nothing interesting you can do to speed up your code in most languages (more) |

"takes a random number" do you mean *output* one?
"Built-ins allowed" well pretty much all golflangs have a random builtin, so this kills the challenge. Furthermore, I don't really see how this is possible. Without any sort of external code, all operations you can do are deterministic... (more) |

I feel like we really only need one guess the language challenge... others don't add that much imo. (more) |

@#54114 Since it is valid, you have to accept Shaggy's answer - if you want to make another with your original language that doesn't work in Japt, go ahead, but this should count as correct. Other languages that do this include Pyth (more) |

A: What's a code bowling challenge? It's the opposite of code golf. Code bowling is essentially a challenge where you try to write the longest code possible, as opposed to the shortest code. Now, this format comes with many issues, and you may be able to see why. For example, just adding comments increases code length - you need a v... (more) |

Three Number Monte The Rules In this game, each round, every player faces off against every other player in a round robin format. In each match, players pick 3 positive integers that sum to 360. Let's say player 1 picks `[a, b, c]` and player 2 picks `[x, y, z]` Now `a` is compared to `x`, `b` is compared to `y`, an... (more) |

A: Default Rules: Random Every outcome must be possible For example, if the challenge requires a random number from 1-5, all 5 numbers must be possible. It does not need to be uniformly random (unless otherwise specified) - all 5 numbers may have different probabilities of occurring, but they all must have a nonzero proba... (more) |

A: Default Rules: Flags and Other Compile-Time Options IF flags take arguments, those arguments count for the code length For example, in Japt, `-F"string"` is a flag that prints `"string"` if the output is falsy - in my opinion this should add 6 bytes on to the length of the answer (in language `Japt -F`).

A: Default Rules: Code Golf I/O Functions may use arguments or lists of arguments interchangeably For example, if a challenge requires defining `f(x, y, z)`, `f(a)` is also acceptable where `a[0] = x, a[1] = y, a[2] = z`. (more) |

A: Default Rules: Code Golf I/O You may output delimiter-separated values instead of a list For example, the output `[1,2,3]` could be represented as `1 2 3` or `1|2|3`. (more) |
