A "trait" is a characteristic or proof that your output/submission must follow. Example traits include:

  • Your output must be palindromic
  • Your submission must be bijective: (there is one output for each input, and vice versa)

"Validity" means that the check for whether a submission is acceptable is completely based on these traits. There should be multiple ways for people to fulfill these traits.

This does not include output that is based on random values. For example, "You must output a number from 1 to N with a uniform distribution". This technically allows a variety of answers, but if there's only 1 output if the RNG was an input into the function, then the tag doesn't apply.

Trait isn't really a common word around here. I understand that. However, I don't think we've ever really talked about these things before, so we need a new term.
