Oct 30, 2022 at 4:31 comment added Demetri Pananos @dipetkov I have. Those are guidelines, not requirements. I am erring on the side of providing useful resource for posterity, leaving the responsibility to learn with OP. If you have a suggestion for how to improve the answer, I'm willing to consider it, but I stand by my rationale for answering it outright.

Oct 29, 2022 at 14:33 comment added Demetri Pananos @dipetkov Then that's OP's problem. Learning from example is a legitimate strategy, and if OP doesn't want to use that and instead take the answer and run then I don't see why the onus should fall on the members of this community to rectify that.
Oct 29, 2022 at 14:00 comment added dipetkov I actually think it's the OP's loss that you just gave them the answer.
Oct 29, 2022 at 13:49 comment added Demetri Pananos @dipetkov When I was a student, I asked for help dozens of times on stack exchange. Often, I was given guided answers, but others I just got the answer right away. Sometimes seeing the solution can help clarify the process. I'm not advocating for always doing this, but I think once in a while it is OK to throw people a bone.
Oct 29, 2022 at 13:45 comment added dipetkov Don't you think this is a homework question? In which case it wasn't the best idea to solve the OP's homework for them.
