Hear, hear! There are two reasons for asking a question like this
one. One, of course, is to get the job done. An obtuse occult
one-liner may satisfy this requirement. The other, more important,
reason is to learn how to do that sort of thing. A well documented
easy to understand answer is essential to this purpose.

It is said that if you give a hungry man a fish, he will eat once. If
you teach him how to fish, he will eat many times. So also with
solutions to problems.
