Paddy: I replaced the hash marks ('''#''') with bullet points, but I'm not 100% sure that it's an improvement. The bullet points look nicer, but they don't have the size. From some reason, Wiki doesn't display the bullet point glyph the correct size, it should be more of the <big>•</big> size instead of the • size. I'm more used to the size bullet that the IBM fonts used for the '''TN''' print chain (ya, too long in the tooth). But there ya have it. I also would like world peace and an end to world hunger. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 13:50, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
== adding a thingy for ''prime numbers'' as there is for ''sorting'' (algorithms) ==
Paddy: I was thinking about adding a thingy for prime numbers and factorization, very much like that thingy that Rosetta Code sorting algorithms have at the top right of every Rosetta Code task that does some sort of sorting. It's that box that shows readers what other Rosetta Code tasks deal with sorting (algorithms).
I would include (maybe) these sections:
:::* "regular" primes
:::* kinds/types of primes
:::* factorization of integers
:::* tasks that make use of primes
:::* miscellaneous prime stuff ... I don't know what to call this catch-all stuff ... ''other'' ?
This addition would be not so much for the casual reader, but for Rosetta Code coders who, once they start programming for various prime tasks and other types of primes, would naturally delve into (integer) factorization and possible some related fields. I've been added the category '''Prime numbers''' to any Rosetta Code task that deals with primes or (integer) factorization, or tasks that make use of primes. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 14:21, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
By the way, I think there should be another category added, '''Primes''' that re-directs to '''Prime numbers''', but I'm not sure quite how to enter it, or even if it ''should'' be created. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 14:21, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
