Re: Help me with this
You can look in the archives. That is often how things are solved here. ;)
We aren't allowed to give the problems' solutions because that's against the rules, and you shouldn't post any problems to the site as well. They are likely already on the site. |

Re: Help me with this
Rather, you shouldn't post a problem in the forum, chatterbox, or in comments to another problem and ask for the solution.
More often than not, the problem you are trying to solve is already on the site anyway, so use the search box on the main page to try to find it. The search looks for exact phrases, not multiple words, so something like "hats color person" probably won't find anything. Try looking for single keywords, and use the 'Search body' checkbox for better results.
On the other hand, if you have a problem that you found interesting, you know the solution to, and want to share, feel free to submit the problem to the site once you have become a student and are more familiar with what goes on here.
Lastly, the site is not here to get people to solve your homework problems, and as there are always quite a few problems waiting to be posted, submitting a problem you don't know the answer to will probably not very useful to you in a few months' time anyway. |
