Line 25:
::: That only makes sense. If A and B are permutations of each other, then any C + A is a permutation of C + B, which will give a lot of boring answers. --[[User:Ledrug|Ledrug]] 22:58, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
:::: I made some minor changes to the task page caveats (in parenthesis) which hopefully clarifies things. --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 01:32, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
::::: I see differences in results on the "extended" list of names. Python and C give different results, etc. --[[User:Bearophile]]
:::::: It's a conscious choice. Like I said above, since "New Kory" and "Kory New" are permutations of each other, outputing hundreds of "State X + New Kory = State X + Kory New" is a positively boring thing to do -- for the user who's watching the output. Plus it's questionable what "two other states" means in this case since "State X" shows up on both sides. It's a matter of preference IMO, where the C code prevents this kind of output, while the python code doesn't. I prefer the C solution (surprise!). --[[User:Ledrug|Ledrug]] 06:58, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
== Time to leave draft? ==
This appears to have settled down. I'll check in in a couple of weeks. If nothing new comes up, I'll remove draft. --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 03:25, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
