: However, the relevant output text string should be strictly adhered to as that's the task requirements. As in a real world example, the name of the game ... er, task, is to do what the requirement(s) specifiy, not what the name of the task is. If the task is to display a specific mixed uppercase/lowercase text with punctuation (and in this case, in direct contradiction to the task's name), then that's what's to be displayed/shown. We all know to shutdown a Microsoft Windows system, you have to click on '''Start''' first. --- And having wallpaper on a desktop, ... there're way too many examples of oxymoronic procedures/methods/names/requirements/etc. Many of the Rosetta Code program examples got this very simple task wrong, either by the wrong words, case, and/or punctuation. A few hit the trifecta. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 18:28, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
: Should tasks be marked as '''incorrect''' if they don't meet the task's requirements? Simplistic as the task is, more than a handful of the examples managed to get it wrong. Or, should somebody just correct them? It's easy enough to do, as most of corrections would just be changing a literal. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 21:52, 23 October 2012 (UTC)
