It's the old, "Give a man some water" versus "Build a man a well" thing. I have always hoped to encourage people to reach beyond what I can do. I doubt that any homework tasks are solved by the list, and if they were the thought processes that are posted will help many others. It takes a very clever mind to accommodate a third-party solution without understanding either the problem or the answer.
