Talk:Extended Straddling Checkerboard

Is this a draft task?--Nigel Galloway (talk) 14:28, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Not in my book. It may as well read "A programming language is a thing. See wikipedia". It could be made into a draft task if the author specified which word dictionaries (and all their corresponding codes) and which 'arbitrary' functional codes to use, and specifically here how FIGURE was supposed to know how many digits there were (if not 1). Sample inputs and outputs will help. Of course if someone (Wherrera) is working on a submission, that alone would probably provide enough details to flesh out the task description. --Petelomax (talk) 14:34, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

I have an implementation of one of the extended checkerboards in the reference, but wonder if it fits what the author wanted? They are vague since the page does not specify a task.--Wherrera (talk) 18:30, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Well, as the author is not showing any signs of life, all we have to go on is that the implementation should support FIG and CODE fields. So, if yours does that, I’d post it and we’ll try and build a draft task around that. --PureFox (talk) 09:33, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
