May 2, 2018 at 19:56 comment added IQuick 143 @mbomb007 Finding a language that this is possible in is a part of the challenge
May 2, 2018 at 18:41 comment added mbomb007 Well, it's easy to think of languages this is impossible in... Any BF-like program doesn't work, because you can shift to arrive at an unbalanced bracket. Same for JS if you have = or parentheses or brackets. More widely stated: a program cannot contain any character that cannot also be the first character. That rules out so many...

Apr 26, 2018 at 12:49 comment added IQuick 143 @jimmy23013 I checked if a challenge like this one exists and saw the one you linked but this is a different challenge. The point of this one is that your program must survive byte shifting while remaining functional while the mentioned one requires only rotating 2 or more whole parts.
Apr 26, 2018 at 11:12 comment added l4m2 sorry no for it div the repeat part length
Apr 26, 2018 at 11:11 comment added l4m2 @jimmy23013 5083 is such a problem but code-bowling version
Apr 26, 2018 at 7:48 comment added Kevin Cruijssen Would this count as a 'rotating quine'? ;p
Apr 26, 2018 at 7:38 comment added jimmy23013 Retracted my close vote. The other question is in essence bowling if someone finds a solution.

minor grammar and formatting changes
Apr 25, 2018 at 20:00 comment added dylnan @IQuick143 I think >2 characters is a good requirement for the reason you stated
Apr 25, 2018 at 19:37 comment added IQuick 143 @l4m2 It states more than 2 char because your code would actually print it's reverse which is kinda not the point, also if my expectation is correct some language allows for pushing two characters in stack and then emptying the stack by just 2 characters which Would fulfil a reverse quine challenge but not this one (technically). tl;dr I didn't mean to allow exactly 2 char but if you have a reason why I'm willing to listen.
Apr 25, 2018 at 19:31 comment added l4m2 Is [exactly 2 char] allowed? (seems not to avoid stack-based language AB)
Apr 25, 2018 at 19:20 comment added Dom Hastings @IQuick143 Yeah no problem, I wasn't implying that at all! Life has been busy lately and I'd forgotten it was even in the sandbox until I saw your post!
Apr 25, 2018 at 19:18 comment added Dom Hastings @mbomb007 I have indeed! I'd kinda forgotten about the items in the sandbox, but there you go! :)
Apr 25, 2018 at 19:17 comment added IQuick 143 @DomHastings Oh well, sorry. I guess we both had the same idea. I have by no means stole your idea though, that would be a false claim.
Apr 25, 2018 at 19:13 comment added mbomb007 @DomHastings You've had months to post that.
Apr 25, 2018 at 19:07 comment added Dom Hastings Well that's upsetting: codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/a/14104/9365
