This seems to be a variation of what WP calls [[wp:Pancake sorting|Pancake sorting]]. Should the task perhaps be revised somehow? Or perhaps a new "pancake sorting" task be added, and then note this as being ''applied'' pancake sorting? -- [[User:Eriksiers|Eriksiers]] 20:02, 4 April 2010 (UTC) |

: Hi Eriksiers, the only restriction on the method of sorting is that only reversals are allowed. It could be that pancake sorting might be a way to get to the desired result, but that algorithm is not mandated. The program does not ''do'' a sort. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 20:47, 4 April 2010 (UTC) |
