::::My opinion: I interpret this particular task as "Apply a callback to a '''collection'''". The array-ness is secondary, it is the callback that is of interest. --[[User:IanOsgood|IanOsgood]] 17:11, 15 January 2008 (MST)

::::::I did add a task description. I'm concerned that it may not be specific enough to qualify as a callback. I didn't use the term "collection", as that would have special meaning in VB.Net and (I think) Java. --[[User:Short Circuit|Short Circuit]] 00:19, 17 January 2008 (MST)
:::::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.

::::::That was my interpretation of the intent as well.--[[User:Short Circuit|Short Circuit]] 00:19, 17 January 2008 (MST)
