Public lookup · 5 rows

L4.R0.hash-prefix-1

Native verification status · ● solved

What this result establishes

5 public lookup rows. Fixed public inputs and target bytes. Targets depend on a seed the program does not receive. Passing measures finite lookup construction, not hash computation. The attempt score reports the worst epoch; all epochs must pass.

Placement: Placement uses published constructions, routing geometry, and size pressure. Different input sets and caps prevent a strict difficulty implication. How rank is interpreted.

Challenge

ladder rank: #16 (historical identifier L4)
family / transform: HashPrefix / Identity
cases: 1 case, 1 output byte each
limits: program ≤ 1024 bytes, ≤ 100000 steps/case
task summary: Fit five public input/target rows; one output byte per row.
exact contract: Registry JSON · L4.R0.hash-prefix-1
