Is it an intent that the solutions   ''must''   use the Brent algorithm?   -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 22:07, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
 
I would prefer that it use Brent, since that makes it easier for those who might benefit from the algorithm to make an apples-to-apples comparison when looking at different language implementations. At the very least the implementer should identify which algorithm they are using. The performance characteristics can very considerably among algorithms.
