What purpose does it serve to exclude languages that can implement the task as a user routine? --[[User:Tinku99|Tinku99]] 05:08, 7 June 2009 (UTC) |

:Hi Tinku, Some people, especially those new to a language, might not know too much about the facilities that the language comes with. This task is a comparison of what languages provide rather than what they can be programmed to provide and might be just as useful.<br> [[Integer literals]], [[Mutual Recursion]], and [[Common number base conversions]] are some other tasks that similarly try to contrast the 'native' capabilities of each language. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 09:08, 7 June 2009 (UTC) |
