Um... So what's the point?

So what's the point of this "task"? How is this operation a "shape machine"? (references? links?) What is the desired precision of the output? Why is this a task and not a draft task? --Thundergnat (talk) 19:52, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

yes -User:Gaham
Yes to what? None of those question could sensibly be answered by "yes". Why is repeat spelled "reapeat"? And previous spelled "previos"? (at least, I assume what those are meant to be...) Why do none of the sentences have ending punctuation? Again: Why is this a task and not a draft task? --Thundergnat (talk) 20:03, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
1. That was supposed to mean that there is not point of the draft task. 2. Whoops -User:Gaham
There seems to be no point whatsoever. What does "after the number stops doing the second step" mean? The number isn't doing any steps. The example Python code loops indefinitely. Which "second step" should we pick? The reference link is just to another wiki which has the same seemingly pointless operation and which was written by you. Again; What makes this operation a shape machine? --Thundergnat (talk) 20:20, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
1.basicly means if the previous digit is the same as the current digit. 2.i can't really phrase that correctly. So I will just change that. 3.the second step on the list of tasks maybe? 4.One shorten word with a word. OC stuff
