I'm afraid I have to agree with her: the instructions were pretty explicit as to exactly what she wanted: a Generic search method using an array. You provided a generic method using a stack.
That's not the same. It doesn't meet the requirements: If you were selling cars she asked for a red Ferrari and you supplied a red Ford.
She is right. Possibly harsh, but right. You did not complete the task that she asked you to.

Thanks your answer 
now, I can understand I provided the solution in a wrong way.
But this different is really big problem as much as get the zero? 
I can accept some miss point, but...I don't know.. 
anyway thank you for your time..

Would you be happy with a red Ford if you had asked for a Red Ferrari? 
Computing is a lot about details: so not reading the assignment correctly could be a significant problem.
As V says: redo it "properly" and ask her if that was what she wanted. It may not improve your grade, but it might be a better solution than annoying the person who will mark your next assignment...

Just out of interest, how much of your own work did you put into that?
Did you write it all, or find something on the internet and "bend it to fit"?
How long did it take you?
How did you test it?

Some teachers only have like three possible grades. if you have a score between 0 and 10 they have 0 if you were wrong, 5 when you only made a very small error and 10 when you're correct. I've always had trouble with teachers using this way of grading, but that's the way life is.
That said, you're application looks very complicated for an assignment which just needs to loop an array front to back and provide the index of the matching searchkey. Secondly, many of the output lines contain spelling mistakes. Native language or not, when you produce something that others see, make sure to use correct spelling.
I haven't looked into detail to the code and have no idea if it works, but although 0 might be a little on the low end, it surely doesn't deserve the 10 out of 10.
My personal advice, I always use the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) principle. Don't overcomplicate things  .

Yeap, of course, I never expect the perfect mark, but my point is zero was too harsh...
Now, I know my solution was too complicated as you said, and I provided wrong solution.. but..
I still don't understand it must be the zero.
Second thing you said, yeap, I agree with you.  It was my fault, even I haven't known this spelling mistake. lol
Anyway, your advice helped me, don't overcomplicate things.
Thanks V.

For what it's worth. It never hurts to question something and it's good to being able to accept a criticism, even if that hurts sometimes. I doubt you'll get a higher grade (and is it worth it to fight your teacher for it ?).
What I should do, is redo the assignment, as requested. And show it to her. Tell her you don't want a higher grade for the assignment, but you just want to know if that new version would be correct. That you want to make sure you understand. That way you show her you want to put in an effort and you know what she wants to see next time around. When it comes down to a borderline grade, chances are she'll let you pass because of your attitude.

In addition to this being a case of "not doing what the assignment said you should do", the code is sprinkled with many odd things.
For example:
Deviation from the standard formatting. That wouldn't be so bad by itself, but it's not even consistent. Spaces are missing or added randomly.
Lots of static fields. Why? They look like "escaped locals". If you actually communicated through them, I'd probably deduct a point for effectively using globals. Anyway, there are use cases for static fields, but this isn't any of them.
position in GenericStack. What is it? Does it even do anything? Even if it did do something, should it be doing that?
Using anything from the class Convert.
This gem:
public static T To<T>(this string text)
{
return (T)Convert.ChangeType(text, typeof(T));
}
Missing brackets or suggestive formatting near
else
intStack = new GenericStack<int>(n);
The combination
--top;
return elements[top + 1];
So, I don't know about a zero, but I'm afraid I would give you a low grade too. 3/10 if I were generous. Probably 2/10, reserving the 1/10 for those who deliver absolutely nothing. I'm sure you can do better.

To really know how appropriate, or inappropriate, your solution was, and evaluate the "fairness" of the grade, I'd have to understand the context of the class you are taking, and know more about the Instructor's assignment.
On the most general level (based on the information you provide here), I'd say your solution is definitely not what was asked for, and also "too clever by half."
If I were your Instructor, I'd just ask you to redo the assignment in a simpler way; I wouldn't give any grade. I'd do this based on my perception that you are (probably) curious, eager, and you did (probably) more work than other students. I'd rather have a student who is "swept away" in enthusiasm, but makes an error in judgement, than have a student who just does what is required with no enthusiasm ! But, your Instructor may have a completely different mind-set.
You are the only person who can answer the question: "Did you decide to use a Stack because you concluded, for logical reasons, it was the best way to implement the solution, or did you do this because you wanted to 'show off'?"
In any case, your Instructor does have the right to hold you accountable for mastery of the "fundamentals."
Why not talk to your Instructor about your project, trying to be as non-confrontational as possible ?
«I'm asked why doesn't C# implement feature X all the time. The answer's always the same: because no one ever designed, specified, implemented, tested, documented, shipped that feature. All six of those things are necessary to make a feature happen. They all cost huge amounts of time, effort and money.» Eric Lippert, Microsoft, 2009

I'd say the grade is justified.
Writing a bunch of code in a business environment that completely ignored the requirements would get you a bad review at best and fired at worst. Consider that the next time you have questions about the requirements and don't ask them.

I need source code for (Providing Hop-by-Hop Authentication and Source

If that is an article on this site and you can't download the source, then either use the forum at the bottom of the article to raise the matter with the author, or provide us with a link so we can look at the same article.
If it isn't, then we have no control over the article content / download availability.
If you are trying to get code to fulfill your homework project, then it doesn't work like that.
We do not do your work for you.
If you want someone to write your code, you have to pay - I suggest you go to Freelancer.com and ask there.
But be aware: you get what you pay for. Pay peanuts, get monkeys.

HI,
EveryBody,
I understand from Ur article that what is stack in C#,but i didn't understood what is heap in c#???So, i want more explanation about heap with simple example???
Thanks...
IN Advance...

If this is in response to an article you should post it in the forum for that article, not here.

This is the third time you have asked this question. If you do not understand something about the explanations you have been given then go back to the original question and ask for clarification. Please do not keep posting the same question.

A heap is a memory storage and retrieval construct I learned about in college. It's a memory allocation and storage scheme not terribly unlike a stack. I honestly can't remember the exact details (from 1972...) but it's used extensively in compilers and other system level programming to manage limited memory efficiently. Google "memory heap", or consult Knuth's "The Art of Computer Programming" Volume 3 page 145. [Addison-Wesley, 1973]

Hey there!
I have a program that sends lines from a textbox which generally contains a lot of +, < and ~.
The problem I have is that the program does not always write out the tildes (~).
My code looks like this:
string T = this.TText.Text;
T = T.Replace("+", "{+}");
T = T.Replace("~", "{~} ");
statusLabel.Text = "Sending Text...";
progressbartimer.Start();
await Task.Delay(2000);
SendKeys.Send(T);
Is there a workaround to make it always write out the tilde signs so it does not just write it out as nothing?
