Posted from: 129.9.163.234 43646 1 ayg 2010-12-29 19:40:33 +0000 It seems pretty clear that the token list that the algorithm returns can contain the empty string. Step five even calls this out explicitly. So "foo,, bar , ,baz" would become ["foo", "", "bar", "", "baz"]. 44677 2 ian 2011-01-24 19:48:14 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
