Line 135: :: I wasn't sure whether the problem was the extra digit or the comma but I knew you'd soon sort it out :) As you say, there are probably not many languages which can identify a string of digits with thousand separators as being numeric without further ado. Kotlin certainly can't. --[[User:PureFox\|PureFox]] ([[User talk:PureFox\|talk]]) 18:37, 15 May 2018 (UTC) ==~~Mathmatica~~Mathematica vs Wolfram Language== (Changed a word in the talk section title from '''Mathmatica''' to '''Mathematica'''.)     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 23:38, 10 February 2019 (UTC) What difference between: <pre> Line 147 ⟶ 149: <br> If you meant   '''Mathematica''',   then yes, the   '''24 game'''   is included in the count for   '''Mathematica'''.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 23:09, 10 February 2019 (UTC) Line 165 ⟶ 167: If someone with god-like powers would make an executive decision to use one over the other, I suppose someone would write a script to change all the uses of one computer programming language into the other, or I could special case this specific example   (for the REXX programming entry)   into just simply combining those two programming entries into one,   much like the way it currently handles different spellings of a small number of computer programming languages that are spelled differently, or use different glyphs the express the small programming language.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 22:57, 10 February 2019 (UTC) This decision would be similar of using   '''PL/I'''   instead of   '''PL/1''';   Each computer programming entry for   '''PL/1'''   was changed "by hand" to   '''PL/I'''.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 23:29, 10 February 2019 (UTC) I prefer the global script change method   (or by hand),   as this will help consolidate the computer programming language name and would have less confusion to those that think that the two programming languages are distinct entities.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 23:03, 10 February 2019 (UTC) I just noticed that some Rosetta Code tasks that have   '''Mathematica'''   also have (in conjunction)   '''Wolfram Language'''   <br>(in the same   <big> <nowiki> =={{header\|Mathematica / Wolfram Language}}== </nowiki> </big>   header). In that case, each specified language would have it's '''members''' count to be included, so that it appears that in this case, it can appear as double-counting   (in a global total sense).     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 23:59, 10 February 2019 (UTC) Also, as a by-product of having two computer programming languages specified in the <br>  <big> <nowiki> =={{header\|Mathematica / Wolfram Language}}== </nowiki> </big>   header,   it would appear like there was an entry for each of the two languages specified, thus my comment about double counting.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 00:04, 11 February 2019 (UTC) :See my musing on this subject (from last September) here: [http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Rosetta_Code:Village_Pump/Whoa!_10000_examples!#Lies.2C_damned_lies_and_statistics Lies, damned lies, and statistics] --[[User:Thundergnat\|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat\|talk]]) 00:23, 11 February 2019 (UTC) == Category vs. solution == In the latest version of the page you added the line: <blockquote>Only computer programming languages that have at least one programming solution are listed.</blockquote> but that is not the case.
