Following the ancient TiddlyWiki proverb -- Give a person some code and
he'll be able to work for the day. Teach a person to code and he'll be able
to answer the next post in the group" --- it would be great to understand

explain, that's fine):
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you
feed him for a lifetime.
