- Read rule 9 from that page:
-
- 9) While you can and should consult with others on how to solve this
- problem, please be sure that you turn in your own work or your
- group's collective work

- You've had two weeks to do it. You should have found one or two of
- your fellow students to work with. You're in university to learn
- things, not sit about hoping others will do your work.
-
- If you have made an effort, and cannot get any further, then posting
- asking why may be in order. If you cannot see how to start this
- problem, see others in the class or your lecturer. This is not
- comp.lang.c.homework.
-
- Computer Science is all about problem solving, not a typing class.
-
- If you have genuinely made an effort but cannot get any further, you
- could have posted your thoughts so far, and we may have been able to
- help you out, but most problems are best thought out and discussed in
- real-time with your colleagues, and this group only used as a last
- resort.
-
- In my job, when I help out less experienced developers, I always make
- sure I help _them_ find the answers. I don't just spoon-feed a
- solution as they learn nothing from that.
