    The dead segment is either always on or always off.
    All numbers look good.
    The dead segment looks like a normal segment, it isn't highlighted or of different color. Finding the dead segment is your task.

    I'm sorry, but the second and third examples don't make much sense.

    and

    are both valid and clear numbers that both utilize the 'c' segment in their display, yet the 'c' segment is declared dead.
    The same goes for:
    _
    _|
    _|

    (blank)

    _
    |
    |

    These are all valid and clear displays that don't utilize the 'f' segment yet the 'f' is declared dead.
    In neither of these examples is the dead segment evident. Might I suggest that you either use different numbers or displays that clearly show a segment as dead or write the numbers that are supposed to be displayed to highlight what the actual issue is.
    (If there is something obvious that I am missing, please point it out.)
