I alright, but there's some ettiquette. People get
mad if they suspect you're just trying to finish
off your homework quickly.

The standard, polite way to get help is to post the
question _along with_ whatever progress you've made
so far. It's annoying if I'm going to put more
effort into the problem than you have, so it helps
smooth things out if you indicate that you've really
put some time into it first.
