    \$\begingroup\$ @isaacg No it doesn't. I think there would be some interesting languages where it's not obvious whether primality testing is possible. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 28, 2015 at 13:56

    \$\begingroup\$ If the same program, such as "Hello, World!", is the shortest in many different and unrelated languages, should it be posted separately? \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 28, 2015 at 15:33

    \$\begingroup\$ @aditsu Yes, because there's no way anyone to find to the shortest version in an answer of an unrelated language. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 28, 2015 at 15:39

    \$\begingroup\$ @mbomb007 Well it's hidden by default because the three code blocks take up a lot of space. I could minify them so that they are a single line each, but I'd rather keep the code maintainable in case bugs come up. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 28, 2015 at 19:34

    \$\begingroup\$ @ETHproductions "Unlike our usual rules, feel free to use a language (or language version) even if it's newer than this challenge." Publishing the language and an implementation before posting it would definitely be helpful though. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 29, 2015 at 23:01
