And so what? He did some work, he came up against a problem. He's looking for help with a small part of his homework.

The usual response to homework problems is "show us what you've tried so far" - this guy has.

We've all been young programmers once, banging our head against a seemingly intractable problem that a more experienced programmer would solve with a glance. We should respect his efforts, and give him hints that would help him with his problem - he didn't ask us to do his whole homework for him.

Well merlyn didn't say don't answer the question, he didn't say don't help. But having an homework alert visible does enable others to craft appropriate responses (or otherwise, I can tend to be with Dominus on homework). Any-way I don't think it hurts to remind students visiting this site that we can pick their homework questions.
