I try to be helpful without doing it for others. 2 reasons:
1 If it is homework, they need to learn it. It is better to learn by
struggling thru it rather than having it done for you.
2.If it is not homework, why should I do your work for which you are
getting paid? (unless you offer to send a check! 8^)
So Nicoletta at least try. Show us our attempts and we can help.
