Please note that all homework/coursework-TYPE questions must be posted in the HW/Coursework forum, not in this this forum. This is applicable even if your question is not officially from a HW/Coursework, and you are just doing this for your own study, or for someone else.

To the rest of the members, please report such type of misplaced posts. If you are responding to it, please note that there is a good chance that that thread, and your response, will be deleted.
