Two thoughts. First, wouldn't a comment notation supporting ranges (i.e. /* ... */) as well as truncate tokens ( #, ;, // ...) be more interesting? Otherwise, I'd suggest renaming this task to Truncate a String. Second (and this is just an idle idea more than anything else), a task for which a language stripped comments (per its own language's rules; // and # for PHP, // and /* */ for C++, etc) would be very interesting, as it combines demonstrating string processing as well as the language's own comment syntax. --Michael Mol 13:53, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
