::::: It depends on your implementation. If it's not useful for finding the length of, or "iterating" the set, don't do the optional. This is expected and the optional work is optional for a reason. --[[User:Ledrug|Ledrug]] 01:13, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

::::In answer to: ''"How much easier does it need to be?"''
::::See: ''How about the optional task being changed to a description of what the length ''is'', followed by "find the length of the set formaed by <combination of ~5 simple sets>" ?''
::::The maths in the optional part is largely nothing to do with the subject of the main task, forcing the little that ''is'', to be obscured. Some competancy in programming in a language can be taken for granted in the audience, but that does not necessarily translate to a ready grasp of this branch of mathematics. You state that the answer to your equation is simple, it is not germane however, and not everyone thinks it is simple.
