Talk:Look-and-say sequence: Difference between revisions

This task is actually identical to the [[Run-length_encoding]] task, applied iteratively to strings of digits. In fact, the easiest/best solution is simply to re-apply the RLE task here. I think this should be mentioned in the task description. As it is, some of the the code here is far more complicated than it needs to be, because the identity of the two tasks is not pointed out.
