Comment Post #291542 Since this uses the same regex as your JavaScript answer, the same bug applies as described in [Peter Taylor's comment there](https://codegolf.codidact.com/comments/thread/9801#comment-24662).

Fix wording of lower case test cases introduction
about 1 hour ago
Comment Post #291048 I hadn't thought of that. I see no reason why not. I've now edited to explicitly allow lower case, provided that your output is in the same case as your input (apart from the indication that an input is valid, which can be any consistent value), and I've added the same test cases in lower case.

Comment Post #292741 Yes there is more than 1 way to get the correct answer. I'm interested to see which way will turn out to be shortest in different languages.

Answer A: Preferred length limit for Code Golf posts
65,535 The database field can already handle up to 65,535 (216 - 1) characters. Same for all post types and categories I don't see a need for different limits for questions and answers, or for different categories. Challenges I sometimes find the current 30,000 character limit restrictive,...

Question Preferred length limit for Code Golf posts
Currently the maximum number of characters for a Codidact post is 30,000. However, at some point this may be configurable per community (or perhaps per category). There is a GitHub issue for Configurable length limits for content. If this configuration option is implemented, what limit would you l...

Comment Post #292376 Good point about combining with a library. That seems to make this inclusive of more languages.

Comment Post #292376 Personally, I expected that "constants" would be referring to the names of built in constants, such as `PI` or `SQRT3`. However, since the names of such constants also count as "identifiers", it might help to have an explanation of each term to remove ambiguity.

Comment Post #292376 > the source itself contains and iterates through the whole English alphabet Here "iterates through" sounds like the code when running has to process the alphabet, which does not appear to be the case from the example code. My best guess at the intended meaning is: > the source itself contains ...

Comment Post #292376 I don't know if there are languages for which not every letter is included in a language keyword, function name, constant, or identifier. If there are, then it sounds like these languages would be unable to compete. I have 2 thoughts on this: 1. Not every challenge has to be open to every language. ...

Comment Post #292356 In response to a comment on the challenge, I've decided to make the input format more flexible. This leaves your current answer just as valid as before, but I'm letting you know because it is likely you can use the added flexibility to reduce your score.

Make input format more flexible

Comment Post #292354 Allowing an array of digits (as integers rather than characters) would bring the python answer down to 27 bytes. I did intend this as a very quick challenge, so I'm now considering allowing input as any of: - a number (such as integer or floating point number) - a string - an array of character...

Comment Post #292354 Actually allowing input as a string would only take the python answer from 37 bytes to 32, so I was probably overstating "bulk of the challenge".

Comment Post #292354 Oh good point. I hadn't thought of that. Usually I like input formats to be flexible as long as the input format doesn't constitute preprocessing. In this case I feel like separating the input into digits is the bulk of the challenge. I've currently specified input as an integer, so the existing p...

Comment Post #292351 This answer is the one I am least confident of. It isn't clear what counts as a "snippet" of code, making it difficult to know how to interpret this answer. I've added this answer as a starting point for discussion. Please mention any exceptions or edge cases.
