ok NSM :)
CPhill is right. Hectictar knows what she is talking about.
Please encourage her, and others, to explain answers more if you want/need more explanation.
I would like this forum to not only teach maths but also teach people how to explain maths more effectively. So if you do not understand then try and get the person who already answered to explain more. Learning is more effective if it is interactive. :)
Plus, all answerers like return questions from the asker, it makes us feel appreciated and like someone is actually trying to learn from us and that is definitely what we want !
