Hi GordonBGood and welcome to Rosetta code :-)
I wonder if you would consider putting your longer comments on efficiency in a new section of the tasks comments page? You could then refer to your argument succinctly from the task page as you add your code. The RC task pages are normally kept discussion-light, (and a few pages have more interesting discussion pages, such as algorithms and performance on Talk:Knight's tour for example). --Paddy3118 (talk) 05:42, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
