Given no input, output 255 fishes. You may choose any 255 distinct fishes from the following list: ```text african glass catfish african lungfish aholeh... (more) |

Upon rereading I can see that "characters" implies they must be strings/text - which was not my intention. I've edited the input section to explicitly allow numbers and Booleans. (more) |

> You may take input in the format of your choice provided it does not provide additional information that would help solve the challenge
I can't see any way that a two-dimensional Boolean array would solve part of the challenge for you, so yes go ahead (more) |

The holeyest base Given a positive integer as input, indicate which base from 2 to 16 gives the most holes in the representation of the input in that base. The digits used are 0123456789ABCDEF. Note that these include upper case letters (the number of holes would be different for lower case letters). Different f... (more) |

Is it worth clarifying that this restriction applies to general challenges but has exceptions for specific challenge types? For example, optimising to the test cases is fine if the challenge is defined as a test-battery rather than a specification (that is, where the tests *are* the specification), a... (more) |
