Talk:Five weekends

Mods to task description

I thought we needed the total number of months within the range as well as stating how much to print, as a minimum to allow people to compare different implementations for accuracy. --Paddy3118 07:27, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi Mike(Mwn3d), the changes I have made have invalidated the Java solution. Have I gone to far? --Paddy3118 07:41, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

It's already fixed so nope :). --Mwn3d 15:31, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

FWIW, the task was inspired by this blog post: http://lovehateubuntu.blogspot.com/2010/10/5-weekends.html --Michael Mol 14:52, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

A clarification on task #3 (Show at least the first and last five dates, in order):

Task #1 .. (show ALL months...) which would seem to preclude item #3, unless
task #3 (dates) would've wanted the dates of the first and last five weekends, not just the months.
Since nobody else took my interpretation of "dates", I didn't include that version of a date. Gerard Schildberger

Item #1 in The task uses the term "full weekends" meaning Friday+Saturday+Sunday, but it may be misinterpreted to include months with 5 Saturday+Sunday+Monday in the solution (example, October 2011) --Antonio Bueno 10:02, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

Improve C?

Surely this can be solved without relying on an external command. (For EMBee, by --Paddy3118 07:01, 6 November 2011 (UTC)).

thanks, but what's wrong with the improve tag? it helps people looking at the language page to see which solutions could be improved. --eMBee 08:15, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
