- Yeah, that would be allowed. In general, Pyline isn't actually a challenge to program in, because there are clean homomorphisms like the one you've given here; just write ordinary Python and then translate it down to Pyline. Perhaps we could forbid `exec()` from Pyline Classic instead? I intended that dialect as a genuine challenge for old hands who recall Python 2. Corbin (talk) 15:29, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
