I realised I was "helping" you with an assignment which actually was the opposite of helping - because it made thinking on your part unneccessary. Help should be given in a way that pushes the learner into the right direction, lifting confusion, but not presenting the answer right away. Confucius is attributed to have said:

Tell me and I forget
Show me and I remember
Let me do it and I understand.


If you have trouble with an assignment, don't ask for the answer. Try to make it clear to yourself why you can't answer it and ask people to help you better understand the assignment so that you can answer it yourself.
If the brain were so simple we could understand it, we would be so simple we couldn't. — Lyall Watson

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
