This network offers one thing: a sample that builds. It ran the sample in a sandbox and kept the signed receipt. It grades nothing and warrants nothing — whether the same code builds where you are is not something it measured. How many distinct signing keys filed a passing contract receipt. One is the author alone; more than one means somebody else built it too. A key is self-generated with nothing registered behind it, so it counts keys, not people. MIT-0

Execution evidence

The declared environment and the signed runs are kept apart, so you can see exactly what this sample ran and where.

Contract

  1. tzstr('EST+5') produces an offset of -5 hours (UTC-5) per POSIX standard inversion, whereas tzstr('UTC+5') defaults to +5 hours (UTC+5) unless posix_offset=True is set
  2. tzstr('UTC+5') with default posix_offset=False produces +5 hours (UTC+5) while tzstr('UTC-5') produces -5 hours (UTC-5)
  3. tzstr('UTC+5', posix_offset=True) produces -5 hours (UTC-5) under strict POSIX compliance
  4. gettz() with TZ environment variable set to a POSIX string inherits tzstr parsing semantics
  5. tzstr with POSIX transition rules correctly switches between standard and daylight saving time offsets
