I don't know if those other two students are reading
this thread, probably not, but this thread is a good
example of how things are supposed to work. Likely this
is also an assignment, and if not, it certainly could be,
but the question was a well focussed one of "how do I
accomplish this" asked in a way that showed the person
asking the question had worked to find the answer, but,
not suprisingly (this default discriminant deal is a bit
puzzling) had got confused. The response was a thread
explaining not only HOW to do what the student wanted,
but also an explanation of WHY things are that way.

Doing assignments is about learning, and providing just
the right level of help to assist in the learning, rather
than short-circuiting it, is sometimes a delicate line :-)
