: It's not invisible, as it affects the algorithm's behavior. For example, for <code>[10, 20, 30]</code> the Knuth shuffle has six possible outputs, but the Sattolo cycle only two, because it cannot output permutations that have elements in their original place. That makes it interesting, at least. I suppose the two algorithms could have been covered by a single combined task, but it's too late for that now that [[Knuth shuffle]] has existed for so long and has so many solutions. --[[User:Smls|Smls]] ([[User talk:Smls|talk]]) 17:19, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
==Some formulae in Spec notes section invisible to most browsers==
The majority of browsers (those which display server side graphic files for formulae, rather than using local MathML processing and locally installed fonts) are unable to display various formula elements in the Specification, particularly in its notes section. Unexpected content within <math> tags has choked the MediaWiki processor, leading it to generate syntactically ill-formed HTML - specifically tags which lack a semicolon between the height and vertical-align attributes.
The unexpected content may include the use of naked < or > characters, or other anomalies such as redundant flanking space, or literal elements which do not constitute well-formed Latex. [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 19:09, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
