"use commas within appropriate numbers"

Why is that hip now? Why is that part of many tasks instead of being solved once in an own task? This just adds silly useless complexity to a task and nothing else. Here it absolutely has nothing to do with Chowla numbers and just blows up the code while distracting from the main topic. E.g. calculating Chowla numbers in Dc would be easy but string maniupulation is not and is a completely different task and topic. A Dc solution probably would need 90% of its code just for that useless unrelated subtask. Please: Back to the roots! Concentrate on on clear tasks and problems with a narrow definition. Complex tasks spiced up with lots of unrelated subtasks don't fit well into a context like Rosetta Code.
