When you get home or to the library, get some reference materials, attempt the problem, then repost your attempt. Homework help is just that... help
 


I'm sorry to hear that you are feeling stuck at work without any reference materials. That can definitely be a challenging situation. My first suggestion would be to reach out to your colleagues or supervisor for assistance. They may have access to materials that you can use or be able to offer guidance and support. You could also try doing some quick online research or using your own personal knowledge and experience to solve the problem at hand. If all else fails, don't be afraid to ask for an extension or more time to complete the task. Remember, it's always better to ask for help than to struggle alone. Best of luck!
