==When failing and when not on 32bit machine==
==When failing and when not on 32bit machine==
I've written (and tested) the C and UNIX Shell code, showing that they stop in the year 2033, depending on the fact that both uses the (g)libc on a 32bit system; in fact a run on a 64bit machine was successful. But this must not make one think the same apply on e.g. Python and Java code: in fact I've test them too, and they give the '''right results''' even on my machine! So, they don't use the underlying libc to compute dates and time. Luckly! So they proved to be really system independent! --[[User:ShinTakezou|ShinTakezou]] 16:07, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

==Yuletide Wish==
I thought I would write up the task at lunchtime when at work, and have time enugh to do a Python implementation when I got home. No such luck, you beat me too it :-)

Well, let me be the first to wish you fellow RC'ers happy holidays then. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 17:12, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
