Hi all, yes, in fact we should have put a note about not using Dagbani Wikipedia for tests in Tech News. My apologies.
Anyway, we set up a page on Wikifunctions to do testing of functions at https://www.wikifunctions.org/wiki/Wikifunctions:Embedded_function_calls/sandbox Documentation about how it works is available at https://www.wikifunctions.org/wiki/Wikifunctions:Embedded_function_calls Cheers, L.
