As @kukimik mentioned in #137 , we have implemented four exercises that were actually deprecated:
binary
,octal
,hexadecimal
(all replaced byall-your-base
), andaccumulate
(replaced bylist-ops
).When an exercise is deprecated, there is a
.deprecated
file in its.problem-specifications
folder, for example.problem-specifications/exercises/hexadecimal/.deprecated
. I didn't know that.An exercise should never be deleted, instead it must be deprecated by setting its
status
key to"deprecated"
inconfig.json
(this is what this PR does), and possibly setting other fields to[]
too (see the docs for more details).
