Answer A: What is the Q&A category for?
It's for non-challenge questions. These might be general tips questions, questions about how to golf specific pieces of code, common golf paradigms, etc. Here are some examples from SE that might fit into this category. https://codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/54/tips-for-golfing-in-python ...

Comment Post #279434 Ugh, the "strings may have spaces" and the way you don't pad the strings makes it unusually annoying.

Answer A: Who should the temporary moderators be?
With equally great hesitation, I'll also throw my hat in the ring if Jo King does not respond. (If he does, I'd rather Chris be the second moderator.) I was on the PPCG SE site for a relatively long time (couple of years) and know how things work. (I've had access to review queues, close votes, an...

Comment Post #279386 @Lundin I don’t follow. Your code needs to contain all the code it references otherwise it won’t be able to run. If you use stuff(), you must define stuff().

Answer A: What are the rules of programming language compliance?
Regarding > because the vast majority of all programs that were posted & highly up-voted there won't even compile on the most basic, compliant compiler for that language. Code Golf allows functions as answers. For example, this could be a Java hello world program, even though it obviously do...

Question Should sandbox posts give rep?
Should sandbox posts give rep? On one hand, keeping this feature motivates more people to use the sandbox. On the other hand, allowing people to gain rep twice for the same content seems wrong in some way. What does everyone think?

Comment Post #279185 I agree with msh - the length should not include the negative number even if one of the inputs is negative to be consistent with the other cases. So the last two examples should be 1 and 0 respectively. Another option is to just guarantee the inputs are positive - its up to you.
