Re: [hotpotatoesusers] Re: Weird behavior

Hi there,

Your exercise contains these characters, in question 23:

I[22][3][0] = new Array('\u03b3','Gamma est littera Graeca tertia!',0,0,1);
I[22][3][1] = new Array('\u03b2','',1,100,1);
I[22][3][2] = new Array('\u03b4','Delta est littera Graeca
qu\u0101rta!',0,0,1);


Cheers,
Martin
