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...

Question Convert integer to English
Given a non-negative integer up to $999\\,999\\,999$, write it in English. The input number can be in any form other than English (though you'll typically want to use the native integer type of your language). The numbers must be formatted as follows: Two-digit numbers must be written wit...

Comment Post #284088 Can you please be more specific? What do you let pass? A final newline? Occasional other trailing whitespace? Leading whitespace? Occasional double spaces? All of them? Some of them? And what about the supposed behaviour on input characters not in the specification?

Comment Post #284088 I'm not talking about a newline (well, I get that, too, since I use the C function `puts` for output, but I assumed that would be OK; if not, I'll replace it by `printf` at the cost of 2 characters), I'm talking about a space character (ASCII code 32), which my code currently in *some* cases adds at ...

Answer A: Tips for golfing in Python
Replace `n+1` with `-n` and `n-1` with `-n` For integers, `n+1` and `-n` have the same value, as have `n-1` and `-n`. While the expressions themselves have the same lengths, the replacements often allow to save space by allowing either to remove whitespace or to omit parentheses due to differen...
