I have a suggestion. Ask your instructor if this makes sense. As a (former)j instructor at both MIT (math) and UC Berkeley, (computer science) my advice is: don't waste your time on this. It will not improve your understanding or your grade. On the contrary, it will distract you, and possibly thwart your efforts to show your answers. RJF
