Please don't post your reply above the text you're quoting, as it forces
people to read down to see what you're replying to. Please don't take
this the wrong way, but if you don't know where to start, your
instructor is not doing a good job, or you aren't paying attention to
what they've been teaching.
In the end, if you are given an assignment that you don't understand,
you are obligated to tell your instructor so they can help you (if not
to be able to within the confinements of what they've taught you thus
far), and it also might allow them to realize they've missed an
important aspect in their curriculum, which could help the entire
class. No one benefits if you aren't taught what to do, if you're
asked to do it.
Figuring it out on your own, potentially the wrong way, isn't going to
help either, if it deviates somehow from the actual assignment or if it
goes beyond the parameters the instructor expects you to use (like the
classic K&R book that asks you to use getchar() for their exercise,
when you'd want to use a better method (but you've not been taught that
yet, and if you do it, you probably expose the fact that you've gone
outside of the class environment and had other people do the work for
you).
