bracket-push: renamed to matching-brackets

Open petertseng opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

In https://github.com/exercism/problem-specifications/pull/1501, bracket-push was renamed to matching-brackets in problem-specifications, therefore it is recommended that this track (which has the bracket-push exercise) also renames it.

The reasons for this recommendation:

  • to name the exercise by its story, not by what it potentially teaches
  • to avoid unnecessarily biasing the solution space

If this track decides to follow this recommendation, here are some things that may need a change:

  • config.json (change the slug of the exercise; no need to change its uuid)
  • name of the directory
  • README (contains the name of the exercise)
  • code

If you're not sure what needs to change, feel free to examine PRs to other tracks by looking at any PRs linked to https://github.com/exercism/problem-specifications/pull/1501.

When the rename is complete, the person who did the rename should close this issue; you don't need to ask for confirmation from the person who filed this issue (the person who filed this issue might not check back regularly).

If this track instead decides that accepting this recommendation is a bad idea for the track, then this issue should be closed upon making that decision, and none of the above steps should be taken.
