* A task designed to require a large amount of processing, tuned to allow lower level languages like C to find the solution in a reasonable amount of time (like one or two minutes) and higher level languages like Python to be too much slow for the job.
::You may not get the answer you were expecting as the idiomatic Python solution might be to add ''this'' to the C solution then call the C from Python using ''that'' wrapper generator. Their are several toolsets around that use Python as a wrapper around existing C and Fortran libraries and allow the easy wrapping of C routines. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 05:53, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
:::This Python solution is acceptable. The point of this task is not to keep Python out of the page, but to show how various languages face a computation-heavy task.
 
* A task demonstrating how to write a PHP extension DLL (or .so) ... hmmm ... that can only be done in C and Delphi so far. Maybe that's too much of an ask. --[[User:Axtens|Axtens]]
