How is this algorithm related to solving a Hidato Puzzle? or the others for that matter. Does anyone intend to produce a solution using this algorithm?--[[User:Nigel Galloway|Nigel Galloway]] ([[User talk:Nigel Galloway|talk]]) 10:33, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
: The <u>algorithm</u> used for the '''A*''' search isn't related to a Hidato puzzle, but parts of the (computer program) solution may be used, especially the presentation of the solution/answer(s), but that's not the reason I added those other tasks; they appear to me as related tasks in that quite a bit (at least my solution, as yet not included) had a lot of code in common. &nbsp; --- Not that everyone else may have had the same observation. &nbsp; I never intended to imply that the same algorithm (or a even a modified one) could/would/should be used (or even considered) for those other related tasks. &nbsp; In no way does a related task imply the same algorithm could or should be used or applied to another task. &nbsp; To answer your second question, no, I am not going to use this algorithm to solve &nbsp; ''any'' &nbsp; other Rosetta Code problem. &nbsp; That's not what a &nbsp; ''related task'' &nbsp; means to me. &nbsp; I also believe that &nbsp; ''related'' &nbsp; doesn't necessarily mean &nbsp; ''similar'' &nbsp; in this context. &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 21:41, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
