Hi Dan. I noticed your and TBH's activity on this wiki. Now you mention it, in time I'll think about a rabbit sequence task. --[[User:Gaaijz|Gaaijz]] 07:48, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
== Generic Swap ==
Hi Dan. Are these reasonable candidates? Have a look at my scratch pad/sandbox wiki pages: [http://hasnj.wiki.xs4all.nl/index.php?title=Puzzles#Generic_Swap] --[[User:Gaaijz|Gaaijz]] 08:23, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
:Yep! If I were you, I might lead with the primitive solution, <tt>|.</tt>, and express the composite solution without parenthesis, as <tt>,~/</tt>. You might also want to explicitly state that J is dynamically typed, so the solution is trivial. --[[User:DanBron|DanBron]] 16:01, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
== J alphabet gaps ==
Dan, still 2 to go (AFAICS), making J alphabetic complete: J and X. Is 'Jensen Device' possible? For the 'X' I have for 'XML reading' the following 'specialized' solution:
({~i.&.-:@#)('"'&= <;. _1 ]) xmlread
any comments? --[[User:Gaaijz|Gaaijz]] 16:12, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
:I added [[XML_Reading#J|XML reading]]. For this particular task, I think the XSLT library is best suited. What script defines <tt>xmlread</tt> in your example? I couldn't find it anywhere in the base library or addons.
:: Well, don't look for it because it's just the input to process. I cook up this soln because the task has the phrase: quote '... using whatever means desired'. :-) --[[User:Gaaijz|Gaaijz]] 10:44, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
:Regarding [[Jensen's Device]], J doesn't really have semantics of the type needed. The only two approaches I can think of entail exploiting mapped files or the parse rules which stack names (e.g. the proverb rule). Unfortunately passing by name isn't sufficient; for Jensen's Device (at least the example given), you need the exact ''expression'' that calculated the parameter (in this case, we need to be able to say <tt>some_verb 0;1;100;1 % i</tt> and give the verb access to the expression <tt>1%i</tt> rather than just its result. AFAICT, this isn't really possible in J, without quoting the expression, which evades the spirit of the task.
:Perhaps it'd be easier to create a new task starting with J. The idea has a certain poetry (given that we're the J task force).

::Some of the [[Help:Similar Sites|similar sites]] may have a task you can migrate. If you see a better Y, don't hesitate :p. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 17:56, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

==Game of Nim moved==
Hi DanBron, I moved the task [[User:DanBron/Game_of_Nim|here]]. As it stands, it is not suitable for RC as discussed on its talk page. Sorry. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 11:59, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
