If you find yourself stuck trying to figure out why something doesn't work, just go back to a previous step where stuff worked and try another approach.
It's not always possible to figure out why something is broken. If you screwed up, don't be afraid to throw your work away and start over. This may save you a lot of time!
This is why it's important to advance in baby steps.
Keep up the good work.

With the first homework out, it's perhaps time to emphasize that the scope of the project strictly defines what's asked from you. Doing more than that IS NOT WELCOME. It's not cute, you won't get additional points for it, you won't get in my good graces. Just don't do it. The instructions in the homework paper are pretty clear (ask questions if not!). Stay within scope.
Keep up the good work.
