Wikifunctions:Requests for deletions/Archive/2023/09

Z10445

Request for deletion. By directly allowing for eval, we basically circumvent any limitations of running only approved code. The same is true for Z10448. Also delete attaches tests and implementations: Z10446, Z10447, Z10449. --Denny (talk) 00:04, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Hmm, maybe a similar request regarding brainfuck: hello, world! (Z10443), but here it doesn't feel so bad, because it cannot break out of the sandbox. I think a bit of conversation around this and the other to functions would be good. -- Denny (talk) 22:12, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Functions that rely on randomness

Request for deletion for the following functions (and all associated tests and implementations):

• Z10599
• Z10228
• Z10829
• Z10601

Reason: Wikifunctions architecturally does not support randomness (it might be caching function results in the place you least expect it to). And caching and randomness leads to ... rather unexpected results. We might one day add support for randomness in some way, but until then I would recommend to delete these functions, which might otherwise raise wrong expectations. --Denny (talk) 22:09, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Unfortunate, as the function creator I don't mind if they are deleted. -wd-Ryan (Talk/Edits) 15:11, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
