Line 24:
== command line ==
Why does the task specify that the year is supplied from the command line? This seems to conflate two totally separate language capabilities--date arithmetic and command line handling. For the PHP example, I'm just ignoring the command line requirement. --[[User:Showell|Showell]] 17:37, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
 
: Specifying the year on the command-line makes it easy to check any specified year (or multiple years) without having to change a hard-coded year inside the computer program.   This should be a trivial requirement for most languages.   It also makes it easier to compare how a particular language handles command-line arguments.   -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 17:28, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
