:: Although we have a lot of curve drawing tasks not all of them use the L-system. For example the Wren solution for the [[Koch_curve]] task simply draws it from first principles. I don't therefore think it's unreasonable to have a generic L-system task and you can then draw what you like with it. --[[User:PureFox|PureFox]] ([[User talk:PureFox|talk]]) 14:47, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

::: I agree with PureFox - the task is specifically about the L-System, not about the Koch curve (which isn't mentioned in the task description). It might be better if the Task specified which test cases to use, instead of leaving it to the sample author.
::: There are a number of samples now. I vote for re-instating it as a Draft Task. --[[User:Tigerofdarkness|Tigerofdarkness]] ([[User talk:Tigerofdarkness|talk]]) 12:31, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Motivation

This task pretends to fulfill the Rosetta Code goal of comparing solutions in different languages, (in this case) for the task of implementing a generic L-system. Laurence (talk) 05:26, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

We already have Koch_curve, for which there is no Formulea entry, so why not move that there. Should someone be interested in Lindenmayer systems then a quick search reveals ten of them already on this site, so I hardly think we need an 11th. --Petelomax (talk) 12:43, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
