I suspect that the task wants integers, but that's not what is actually said. Having to guess 8.5455445362456 is probably not what you want when you ask for a number between 1 and 10. Furthermore, it does not specify that the "set limits" must be unequal or if they're exclusive or inclusive. For example, are we allowed to look for a number between 4 and 4? What about between 4 and 5? |

What do we mean by "number"? And must the limits be distinct and inclusive?
I suspect that the task wants integers, but that's not what is actually said. Having to guess 8.5455445362456 is probably not what you want when you ask for a number between 1 and 10. Furthermore, it does not specify that the "set limits" must be unequal or if they're exclusive or inclusive. For example, are we allowed to look for a number between 4 and 4? What about between 4 and 5?

- I think yours is the R solution which seems to understand the present task requirement.
- There are a lot, (over 100), of other examples, and none marked incorrect.
- (There are some tasks that havent't come out of draft status and have a couple or no implementations where the need for rewrite is more immediate).
