The LLVM 3.0 release notes will reference Pure if anyone wants to add it as citation somewhere http://llvm.org/docs/ReleaseNotes.html snaphat (talk) 02:10, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sieve of Eratosthenes

In the examples section, the code given as the "sieve of Eratosthenes" does not appear to be a true sieve of Eratosthenes. It looks more like a Turner's sieve -- a simpler but computationally far less efficient algorithm. 174.27.229.215 (talk) 00:50, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge

Unless anyone objects, I'm going to complete the merge I proposed in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pure (programming language) (3rd nomination). Tagging AfD participants: User:HyperAccelerated, User:IntGrah, User:JPxG, User:Adam_Sampson. Not going to do a formal WP:MERGEPROP because I can never remember all the steps.

@Suriname0 Oppose I think Prolog would be a better example to cite rather than Pure in the article on rewriting. Perhaps there are yet better examples. IntGrah (talk) 23:58, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Suriname0 Your proposal sounds good to me. But I'd agree with IntGrah that Prolog is a much better-known example, so I'd add it as another example rather than replacing existing ones. Adam Sampson (talk) 03:49, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
