::: Isn't [[Idiomatically_determine_all_the_lowercase_and_uppercase_letters]] a different task from this one? --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 06:02, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
 
:::: Yes, it is.   That task stress the   ''idiomatically''   part of the task   (instead of just listing all the characters from   '''a''' ──► '''z'''   (inclusive).   The other task also asks for the uppercase versions of the letters.   It should be noted, however, that the other task is still a draft task at this time.   -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 06:18, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
 
As to the     ''use a reliable style of coding''     phrase, I interpreted that to mean to code the program in such a way to not assume that the lowercase letters may not be contiguous on other systems, and that the programer should test if a particular character is indeed, a lowercase character.   -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 23:04, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
