Oh. I though that considerations went away automatically if the voting indicated such. I guess I miss the point of the voting mechanism.

As far as I understand, the only automatic consequences of voting are reaping. For all other cases, the voting ballot shows the intervening janitor what other monks think about the consideration. See How do I use the power of consideration responsibly?: Consideration amounts to a suggestion that janitors "fix" something.

Really? I though I vaguely remembered that there were some specific consequences of consideration. Visibility?

Afaict only approval, front paging and reaping affect visibility, not a consideration as such.

I had to consider the vote for a few minutes.

The title is certainly odd (iterating over a single item?). On inspection, the question is not about the arrays, so the suggested title doesn't fit either.

So, in the end, I think a better title would be "Iterating over characters in a string". And then comes the question of whether it would be worth considering.

I probably would have said no, but given the evident confusion currently, it might actually be worth doing.

The title is certainly odd (iterating over a single item?).

I guess we come from different backgrounds. I've never seen a string as a "single item".

I can't think of any language that doesn't allow you to iterate over a string.

I can relate, but in Perl a string is a scalar.
