Filter command does not allow permutations of the arguments #656

Open nus-se-bot opened 3 years ago

nus-se-bot commented 3 years ago

Replicate:

  1. Command filter w/13 k/done.
  2. Note that highly restrictive and unintuitive guidelines and rules are specified in the filter UG, preventing users from permutating the arguments in a supposedly able filter command.
  3. This prevents the user from being able to easily filter to any condition that he/she may want, always needing to look up the UG, inconveniencing the user severely.

Team's Response

Thank you for your response.

We reject this issue as a bug because we have explicitly included detailed instructions for the “filter” command with all 4 possible scenarios, supported with examples. There is only 3 major categories to filter by by how we structured the task, week number, whether it is done and deadlines.

A more unrestrictive command would be “find”. The “filter” function is an advanced function which requires more complex logic, so a more restrictive set of rules is implemented.

Once again, thank you for your response!
