Programming can be a very fustrating; it is especially fustrating when you first start. Work through your problem. Break it down into sizable chunks and experiment with various solutions. When you hit a wall, continue working on it to find out what specific part of the solution isnt being designed correctly. Being able to maintain one's composure while stuck on a particular problem is one of the most important skills programmers have.
You may post questions regarding specific questions about your problem or talk about the problem and different solutions. The requirement however, is that you also post the "legwork". Give PROOF in the way of both code and psudocode showing that you understand the question and have put actual effort into the problem. The purpose of the thread should be to HELP you get to the answer and not GIVE you the answer. All other threads will be locked.

For everyone else. Please do not do homework for the students.
