#Sed

As sed doesn't have functions, submissions will be complete programs, with input and output via the standard streams.

##Programs with no input

Sometimes a question asks only for output, and doesn't specify providing any input. Because sed is incapable of producing any output unless there's at least one line of input, you should assume in these cases that the input consists of a single newline character.

##Scoring Programs are normally in single-byte character encodings, so counting characters is generally sufficient. Interpreter flags need to be added, as normal; for example, +1 if your program requires -r.

##Numeric I/O Unary is the most useful numeric format for sed, if the question doesn't specifically bar that. It is possible to use sed for arithmetic; although it's unlikely to win any code-golf, it's certainly an entertaining challenge!
