| Apr 25, 2015 at 9:42 | comment | added | Roland | The first comment to your question gives you a good hint. If your function doesn't return the expected output, you should show the expected output and explain it. You should also include (a representative excerpt of) any output your function gives you, including error and warning messages. The goal here is to make it as easy as possible for others to understand your problem. Expecting them to run your code before they have decided to engage in your question already creates an obstacle. | |
