Having a common structure is a nice thing to aim for, but not all languages have a common structure that can be used (or understood by a novice). I assume it would be up to a knowledgeable programmer to verify if the program (in lue of any output) would be correct. Sometimes it isn't good to force a square peg through a round hole. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 01:26, 3 July 2014 (UTC) |

==Undiscussed deletion (JavaScript) June 5 2016== |

Addition is generally preferable to deletion, particularly where approaches diverge, but more importantly, proposed deletions do need to be motivated and explained here on the discussion page. |

Unless there are objections, I propose to restore the functional version, so that readers are allowed see both approaches [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 12:05, 4 November 2016 (UTC) |
