Comment Post #284520 I'm not sure the conditions allow reordering the input values that way. Maybe Mark Giraffe can clarify.

Article Implement Rule 110 [FINALIZED]
[Rule 110] is a Turing complete cellular automaton. It is defined as follows: Take as initial value a sequence of symbols that's infinite to both sides, which consists only of two different symbols (I'm going to use $+$ and $-$ here). This sequence can be seen as a function that maps the integers ...

Question Run-length encode a byte sequence
Run-length encoding is a simple compression technique which compresses sequences of repeating identical bytes. The encoding rules for this task are as follows: Any sequence of $n$ identical bytes ($3 \leq n \leq 63$) is replaced by a byte with value `n+0xc0` followed by only one copy of that by...

Question Find good coalitions
As you might know, there were elections in Germany, and now the parties have to form a government coalition. Let's help them with it! A good coalition has the strict majority of seats (that is, more seats than the opposition). Moreover you don't want more parties than necessary in a coalition, tha...

Comment Post #284407 Shouldn't the test case `2 2 4` also include `^` in the output? Also, you might add the test case `0 0 0` (giving `+ - *`).

Comment Post #284428 I just noticed that the logic for `M` in the return statement now was equivalent to just adding `M`. After that, only one use of `M` remained, allowing elimination of the variable by inserting the expression directly.

Comment Post #284428 I just found the function `bit_length` which gives the functionality of the loop, and thus allows to make the encoding function a one-liner, too.

Comment Post #284391 Exactly. I absolutely intended to have thin spaces (LaTeX `\,`) here. I strongly prefer that to commas as thousands separators. Also, LaTeX inserts a small space after each comma, making it into a list of three numbers instead of one number with commas as thousands separators. Clearly, a list of t...

Comment Post #284001 You can save even more bytes by shortening the colours to the uniquely identifying prefix (also, since my previous suggestion only resulted in a single line, the newline was unnecessary).

Question Encode and decode floating point integers
Imagine you have only one byte (8 bits) to store a value, but need to store values from $0$ to $4032$. Impossible, until you are also told that an error of 1/64 of the exact value does not matter. With that knowledge, you decide to design a floating point integer type, which is defined as follows:...

Comment Post #284407 Is division supposed to be integer division or real division? In other words, should `10 3 3` give true for division (because with integer division, 10/3 gives 3), or false (because in reals, 10/3 gives a fraction that definitely isn't 3). Also, different languages give different results for modulo o...
