:::::I agree that the callback aspect is the gist of this task. This place might not be the best for me to have raised my concern. Still, it seems that the list-vs-array specification is part of a pattern of problem that occurs for some languages, under some tasks, which we may want to overcome by refinement of task descriptions. --[[User:TBH|TBH]] 21:25, 15 January 2008 (MST)
== specifying callback ==
The opening sentence of the Wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callback_%28computer_science%29 entry] is: "In computer programming, a callback is executable code that is passed as an argument to other code." The current task description does not seem to specify that a callback is to be used. ("In this task, the goal is to take a combined set of elements and apply a function to each element.") Just adding the word to this won't work, as we wish to communicate what counts as a callback. --[[User:TBH|TBH]] 07:10, 16 January 2008 (MST)
