In any case, would appreciate some feedback or guidance to get my Draft Task up to Task status.
: Hi, welcome to RC and thanks for adding an interesting task - for me anyway, as not something I knew anything about before.
: Seems clear and reasonably tidy though I've moved the link to the Wikipedia article into a 'References' section which is what we normally do nowadays. I've also added a couple of entries for Go and Wren. After reading the Wikipedia article, I thought I'd end up with something very similar to your Swift entry so I've just done a direct translation. Incidentally, you'd missed off the final </lang> tag for the latter so I've added that as well.
: There's currently no syntax highlighting on RC for Swift so you might like to look for a language which has similar syntax (Scala, Go maybe) and see how they look. I use 'ecmascript' for Wren.
: We usually wait until there's at least half a dozen entries before thinking about promoting a draft to 'full' task status as this gives time for any issues to surface and (hopefully) be resolved. --[[User:PureFox|PureFox]] ([[User talk:PureFox|talk]]) 10:26, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

==Extra blog post on this kind of algorithm.==
I had some issues when trying to complete the Python entry. I thought them through and decided to blog, as here didn't seem to be much explanation out there. (The Wikipedia entry for example, wasn't of much help.
