::There are some other examples: some of the timer related tasks, file handling tasks, I think some of the UNIX shell solutions, Unix/Windows incompatibilities, levels of support with different concepts, etc. I'll paste any that I find. [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 14:23, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
:::The REXX solution for "Flatten a List", works with a string representing a list rather than a list itself. That is a close approximation (and acceptable IMHO). [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 16:43, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
 
We could just have a policy that allows approximations, if an exact fit is not available, providing that the solution states the limitations and any differences in behaviour from the task requirements. [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 16:49, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
