== PowerBASIC format wrong ==
I hesitate to flag the PowerBASIC entry as incorrect, but it would be better to include a mode where it gives the same results as the task description, rather than omitting counts of 1, (Although I understand that this gives a more compact RLE schema). --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 06:18, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
== Require decode counterpart ==
I'd like to see one of two things happen to this task:
# Add an explicit decode requirement, and add ENA template instances to the examples which don't have decode support yet.
# Create [[Run-length encoding (decode)]] as a counterpart to this one, and have the decode examples under this task moved there.
Subsequently, a third requirement, that the decode output, given input from the encode function, produce output identical to that given as input to the encode function.
My concern is that some languages here show decode support, while other's don't, and I'd like to see a symmetric decode implementation per-language shown in this task. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 00:55, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
