::# Unix shell creates a subshell which aims to not pollute the namespace in parent ''process'', but it does pollute the namespace in the same ''source file''. I would say it's not ok. Then again, you don't tend to write very large programs in shell script, so it's probably moot.

:: Your observation of "not polluting the global name space" seems to me to be spot on on how this is being interpreted and implemented. But I'm not certain that I know enough about the task author's intent to say. That raises the question, should the task be changed? Clarified? Renamed? Both? Should implementations be marked incorrect? Given the number of solutions in place, the last choice is not one I'd take. If the intent was missed change the task and if desired create a draft with a better description of the intent with clearer guidelines. --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 23:02, 20 July 2011 (UTC)
