Revision as of 23:13, 1 May 2010
Flagged tasks without separate named routines for half, double, even
I am sure that most languages could dispense with those requirements of the task spec and create a smaller program, but I think people should refrain and stick to the spec so examples can be easily compared, and the page doesn't get to long. I flagged a number of examples accordingly. It was hard doing this for the x86 assembly - the routine might have been similarly coded in a multitude of assembly languages for machines without multiplication, but in the end - it doesn't answer the task. Sorry. --Paddy3118 06:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

- You do have to create a function. the intent is for it to be a named function where the name should indicate the functions purpose. I am hoping that most contributors will go with the intent. --Paddy3118 18:33, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
