The instructions say how it is supposed to be done, that is how I know or else I would try everything else, just trying to do it the way they want it done. It's kind of like math problems in school, sure there are multiple ways to do it but you have to do it a certain way to get full credit and show your work.

Well, it depends. 😯

Gauss solved the problem of the sum of the first 100 integers (which was reportedly given to the class by the professor with the intent to be able to take a nap while they manually added all numbers one by one) and this is still often reported as an example of smart, lateral thinking. )

If I was smart I would not be looking for help.

Or maybe you are smart EXACTLY because you understood that you can't make it on your own and thus ask for assistance. )
