: Then I've taken a look at those tasks and they do not focus on the concept of "byte strings", rather they refer to text strings. This is an ''issue'' if the text string implementation uses a terminator character, like C; and in fact the C solutions to those tasks ([[Copy a string]], [[String concatenation]], [[String length]]) work only for null-terminated string (i.e. "null" char can't be part of the string). (Of course this does not happen in every languages; but C is among those having this "problem"). I think it is enough to add some more C code to those tasks... '''Or''' maybe I gave the wrong name, should it be "Basic binary string manipulation functions"? (binary or according to Wikipedia bytestring) --[[User:ShinTakezou|ShinTakezou]] 15:23, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
::You're in a better position to figure that out than I am. I don't think I was ever really clear on byte strings and binary strings (probably because most of the string work I've done is in Java where most of the details are hidden or irrelevant). --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 19:58, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
