| Oct 13, 2020 at 10:55 | comment | added | pxeger | @Lyxal my reasoning for not doing that was because I suspect most answers will be quite a lot longer in order to make sure they're irreducible, it would complicate things, and IMO it doesn't really matter if they're that length | |

| Oct 12, 2020 at 19:04 | history | edited | pxeger | CC BY-SA 4.0 | clarify wording RE extra characters |
| Oct 12, 2020 at 19:03 | comment | added | Adám | Ah, I see. Maybe clarify that you mean both non-[printable-ASCII] and [non-printable]-ASCII. | |
| Oct 12, 2020 at 19:01 | comment | added | pxeger | @Adám yes, in the post it says "Your program, and its output, can contain any additional non-printable-ASCII bytes (bytes, not characters) if you like, such as newlines". "non-printable-ASCII" includes "non-ASCII" | |
| Oct 12, 2020 at 19:00 | comment | added | Adám | Can my program contain additional non-ASCII bytes? | |
| Oct 12, 2020 at 18:51 | history | edited | pxeger | CC BY-SA 4.0 | clarify irreducibility, remove kolmogorov-complexity tag |
| Oct 12, 2020 at 18:48 | comment | added | hyperneutrino Mod | Actually, yes it seems you're right, I was probably thinking of some other common criteria that isn't valid. Otherwise challenge looks good, doesn't seem to be a duplicate. I would say this isn't kolmogorov complexity since it's not constant but it is restricted source albeit not in the common usage. | |
| Oct 12, 2020 at 18:39 | comment | added | pxeger | What do you mean by "observable"? "irreducible" simply means you can't purely remove characters (not purely substrings) from the program and have it still work (not merely not error). That's pretty objective, is it not? | |
| Oct 12, 2020 at 18:31 | comment | added | hyperneutrino Mod | "Irreducible" isn't really an observable requirement; I'd recommend looking into using pristine-programming to make it an objective criterion. | |
