      Writing code on a development box from Turkey might pass the test.

        My software is mostly used by traders in London, and is slated to be released for Tokyo and New York. I can confidently say it will pass tests 1 - 3. I admit I didn't think about non-Indian numerals (test 4), but then, chances they will be used on a trading floor are zero.

        Cheers, Vıkram.

          Pussies. The Turkey Test is easy. Passing the Mashed Potatoes Cranberry Sauce And Stuffing Test and maybe we'll take notice. But it's the Pumpkin Pecan Pie With A Slice Of Baked Ham On Top Test that divides the men from the boys.

              We're Germans are writing the date like that (no romans), and I prefer that :) Even the numbers are written like in the turkey test (1,50 €).

                I'd use a few dollars of that inheritance to buy an atlas.

                  Here in Spain we also write the dates as in Turkey. (Without the roman numbers). I think that the difference is between the USA and Europe in general in terms of date...
