Nov 4, 2014 at 13:16 comment added trichoplax is on Codidact now The only time that I would object to a function taking input in the same way as a program is if the question was phrased "Write a function that takes the following arguments". This poll applies to questions that are not in such a specific format, so I see no reason to exclude functions that read from stdin.
Nov 3, 2014 at 11:10 comment added Martin Ender @JanDvorak I don't see the relevance of good coding practices for code golf. And some languages don't even have functions and they aren't necessarily at a disadvantage by allowing functions. The idea of being more liberal in the options for I/O is so that each language can pick what's really shortest.
Nov 3, 2014 at 6:43 comment added John Dvorak This violates the single-responsibility principle, the separation of concerns principle, and I don't think it's really useful in code golf. Moreover, functional programming languages won't let you do that at all, and I want some more love for Haskell.
