==Welcome to Rosetta Code==
Rosetta Code is a [[wp:programming chrestomathy|programming chrestomathy]] site. The idea is to present solutions to the same task in as many different languages as possible, to demonstrate how languages are similar and different, and to aid a person with a grounding in one approach to a problem in learning another. Rosetta Code currently has {{PAGESINCAT:Programming Tasks}} tasks, and covers {{PAGESINCAT:Solutions by Programming Language}} languages, though we do not (and cannot) have solutions to every task in every language.
 
[[:Category:Solutions by Programming Task|A variety of tasks]] are listed, and visitors to this site are invited to [[:Category:Unimplemented_tasks_by_language|solve the tasks in the language of their choice]]. The tasks cover everything from the mundane [[Empty Program]] to the classic [[Towers of Hanoi]], the practical [[User Input]], the mathematically-inclined [[Lucas-Lehmer test]], and the involved yet entertaining [[RCRPG]].<br>
