Following the edit, I can see that this now correctly handles unary inputs and non-unary inputs with leading zeroes. (more) |

If we do decide to go ahead with deleting finalized and cancelled Sandbox posts, ideally I'd prefer this to be with a warning comment so the challenge creator can voice any objection or copy any info not present in the main post in the Challenges section. It could just be a quick copy pasted note lik... (more) |

| Comment | Post #287040 |
That sounds sensible. I guess the limits will determine to what extent languages without arbitrary sized numbers can avoid having to do everything manually with strings.
I'm tempted to make the limits on all 3 (input length, numerator size, denominator size) quite small to avoid having to deal wit... (more) |

Rationalise recurring binary [FINALIZED] Now posted: Rationalise recurring binary Given a potentially recurring binary string, output the number it represents, as a fraction in lowest terms. The notation used in this challenge for recurring digits is non-standard. An `r` is used to indicate that the remaining digits recur. For exa... (more) |

| Question | — |
Presumptuous base conversion Take an input string representing a number and convert it to decimal (base 10). However, the base of the input is not specified. Assume the input is in the smallest base for which its digits are valid. Input - The input consists only of characters from 0123456789ABCDEF where A to F represent the ... (more) |

Illustration of the example:
```
11111000
12221000
12321110
12222210
11123210
00122210
00111110
00000000
```
I suspect this was not intended to be a valid output but it would be good to have it made explicit either way. (more) |

From "You can choose which one takes priority." I assume that for 2 overlapping beacons there are only 2 potential solutions.
That is, one beacon must be chosen to entirely overwrite the other everywhere that they overlap.
In case anyone has a different interpretation, such as giving priority t... (more) |

A: Filtering the sandbox for ease of feedback Both tags and [FINALIZED] are problematic Problem with tags Having been shown the related meta post [Separate the tags away from the Sandbox or delete the \[finalized\] tag] I can now see that having tags in the Sandbox that are not tags for Challenges is problematic. It's clear from that post that... (more) |

That meta post does provide a good motivation for avoiding both "finalized" and "cancelled" tags. I'm less comfortable with "[FINALIZED]" or "[CANCELLED]" in the title - that requires searching each time I want to see posts that need feedback, rather than just setting a permanent filter on sandbox po...

Good point.
Although this is mentioned in the opening paragraph and there are the test cases you mention, I agree it would be better for the output section to also be explicit about this, so I've added a couple more bullet points. (more) |

Thanks for all the feedback!
I'll wait to see if there are any other opinions for or against before making a final decision on allowing empty input.
I've edited to allow the input formats you listed, added an upper limit on input size, included your extra test case, and specified that the input... (more) |
