Hi Abhishek,

This is off topic for our email list, which is about working together on 
web and other tech tools to help newcomers join open source software 
projects.

I hope you can contribute in an on-topic way in the future.

If you're looking for general programming help, I suggest finding an 
in-person programming group. If you're looking for help with homework, 
talk to the teaching assistants who are part of the group providing you 
the course.

Good luck! But do try to keep these emails off the mailing list.
