Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around verifying the correctness of a proof, with participants expressing concerns about the clarity and presentation of the original poster's work. The subject area appears to involve mathematical reasoning related to proofs.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Assumption checking, Problem interpretation

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants question the effectiveness of posting images of work instead of typed content, suggesting that clarity is crucial for receiving help. There are inquiries about whether the original poster should edit or delete their question to improve the situation.

Discussion Status

The discussion is ongoing, with some participants providing guidance on how to improve the presentation of the proof. There is no explicit consensus on the best course of action, but suggestions for enhancing clarity have been made.

Contextual Notes

Read the thread "Guidelines for students and helpers" by Vela, to see why you should not expect help if all you do is post images. Take the time to type out the problem and your solution.

Are you suggesting to edit the question?

No, that's not what he said.

On this site it is possible to type everything that was in the problem statement, as well as all of your work. See https://www.physicsforums.com/help/latexhelp/ (under the INFO menu, in the Help/How-to submenu).

Speaking of your work, it's not the easiest to read, plus you have stuff crossed out, which makes it even harder to follow. Some members won't bother to spend the time helping, if the poster isn't willing to put in more effort than merely taking a picture of some messy work.

thank you for the suggestion. I will post a new question.
 
I'm sorry but I can't seem to edit the question nor delete it? What do I do?
