: If the Rosetta Code task name refers (or ''is'') the title of the song ''The Twelve Days of Christmas'', then it would need capalization (as shown in the italicization).   Poem and song titles have their own (some quirky) rules of capitalization.   If, on the other hand, you're referring to or merely naming a Rosetta Code task, than all bets are off, as the ole saying goes. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 14:04, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
 
==question about Ruby==
 
I have a question about Ruby (in gernal) in using the   '''.split("\n")'''   function (or whatever it's called).
 
What happens when the same program is put on a system where there are no   '''\n'''   indicators in the file, but the ''newline'' is instead, ''indicated'' by the end-of-record in the file structure.   This would be the case of (generic) OS (MVS) or CMS (both IBM systems). -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 16:14, 22 December 2013 (UTC)
