:I don't think that split would be good. It would be better to allow more freedom in this task and have the example writers specify what constructs they go with. This isn't an algorithm-centric task, so we should focus on the functionality (which I still think is too similar to [[Bulls and Cows]]--see above). --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 16:02, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
 
Again, the purpose of rosette code is to demonstrate how languages are similar and different. There may be several approaches to a task. I think if you have several approaches on one task you illustrate the differences in the ways that the task is approached, rather than the differences in the languages. If the approaches are different, the readers may be thinking "Hmmm, he used a different technique. I wonder if the other technique works too...". It would probably be better to state the technique being illustrated, and just place notes against the languages where that technique cannot be used. Again IMHO.
