Question 1

Inspired by a very recent post here, can you write a program/function that prints (defined by outputting or returning "Hello, World!" (with caps and exclamation) in any manner), before and ...

Question 2

For each character in your program, the program with that character removed must produce a number smaller than the program with the next character removed. Your base program isn't required to do ...

Question 3

The aim of this post is to gather all the tips that can often be applied to radiation-hardening challenges. Please only post answers which can apply to a large number of languages, and one tip per ...

Question 4

Your task is to write a program \$p\$ which outputs a string \$s\$ with the same length as \$p\$, where \$s \neq p\$. If I remove the \$n\$th byte from your program to get program \$q\$, then either \$...

Question 5

The goal of radiation hardening is to make a program still work after you remove a byte. However, what if a skilled competitor is purposefully trying to mess with you? In this game, each bot will take ...

Question 6

A pristine program is a program that does not have any errors itself but will error if you modify it by removing any contiguous substring other than the entire program. A crystalline program is sort ...

Question 7

Design a function or program that, when run normally, outputs the triangular numbers. However, when any single character is deleted, the program/function should not function in the original ...

Question 8

Write a program that outputs the exact string: jan ale o, toki! ("Hello, world" but in toki pona to prevent builtins.) with an optional trailing newline. ...

Question 9

Your challenge is to write a program that is a quine, meaning it prints out its own source code. For at least one individual character, when it is removed from the program's source, a single different ...

Question 10

The task here is pretty simple. You should write a program that takes a string as input and outputs it (that is a cat program). Additionally when the \$n\$th byte of your program is removed (without ...

Question 11

You are to write a program that, when given an integer between 1 and 5 (or 0 and 4 if you wish to use 0-indexing), outputs one of Code, ...

Question 12

Write a program which, when every nth character is skipped, it prints n. For example, if every 2nd character is skipped, it prints 2. Example n=0 foobar Output:...

Question 13

The task is to write a radiation-hardened irradiator. What do I mean by that, exactly? An irradiator is a program that, when given a string as input, will output all possible versions of the string ...

Question 14

Note: This is the radiation-hardening version of my previous challenge Pristine Bit Checking. This should be much more difficult than that one. Write a program/function that takes two integers in the ...

Question 15

This challenge is quite simple to conceptualise, but likely a lot harder to execute. In this challenge, the program will have to detect the number N of its characters that have been randomly changed (...
