Are programming trivia questions allowed in the Q&A section?

Anyone has the time to read the guidelines and let me know?

Ipang I knew I might get an answer like that about doing a web search but the intention of the trivia was for the reader's benefit not mine.

Ipang I was wondering about a question like "What programming languages do you know that have array indexes starting from 1?"

I think this passage from the content creation guidelines sums it up nicely: "Whenever in doubt, remember that the Q&A section is meant for community members to provide and receive help among each other. Q&A should always be held true to its purpose."

Sonic, I think such doubt can be solved by a web search, if the OP was eager enough. But we know the fact 😁 If the trivia was still around the syllabus, perhaps it can still be tollerated. In the end I guess, the CCG stands true.

Ipang I thought I might get an answer about searching the internet but the question was for the benefit of the reader more than for me.
