Line 58:
We have decimal arithmetic not being output digits, and built-in equality fuzz. This, I think, is all useful info to know when comparing languages,
. The j example manages to follow the spirit of the task and leave a readable and informative entry. The R example could become just as good if it broke down the task in a similar way, but that would need more detailed knowledge of how the language treats numbers.
:Indeed the J example is much better that my plain R one, will rework it to make it more understandable --[[User:Jmcastagnetto|jmcastagnetto]] ([[User talk:Jmcastagnetto|talk]]) 02:15, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
The task description could always be improved, I personally like the direction it is changed to, but I am starting to wonder if it will end in a morass of floating point fine-point'erry!
