1. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
2. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
3. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:

   +close
   

4. Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
5. Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
6. If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

I mean, it just says to research how primes are used in applications

so... look that up and get writing

[manic linden]

I’m trying but i genuinely just don’t understand when im researching, writing isn’t my strong suit but thank you tho!!

[atomic otter]

that's kinda the point of researching, find an example you can understand

[grizzled kettle]

you can talk about cryptography

[atomic otter]

the quintessential examples are cryptography or encoding

[grizzled kettle]

it's the most commonly known example i believe

[atomic otter]

as I just said....

[grizzled kettle]

i believe my message sent before yours

[atomic otter]

yes, cause you barged in for some strange reason

[grizzled kettle]

i was suggesting a topic that OP could research

[atomic otter]

and conveniently disregarded this

If they wanted a topic to research.... they can ask

[grizzled kettle]

there is no need to get uppity

[atomic otter]

instead of, you know, spoonfeeding

or barging in

[grizzled kettle]

"spoonfeeding" you were about to say the same thing

a second later

if you wish to accuse me of spoonfeeding then maybe you should also consider your own messages

[grizzled kettle]

what, there is a restriction of one helper per channel?

[atomic otter]

There should be, yes

[grizzled kettle]

@manic linden i will leave this thread now; good luck with the research
