It is exactly the problem I started with. I might have not explained as well
but that is entirely different.

Well, its your choice. I might have overreacted and then that was my fault.
Now that I look at my original post I can see how it doesn't explain it that
well. I thought it was clear at the time.. in any case you just have to look
at the line
"Is there any command that essentially executes the code and then echo's
it?"
you know, Janwillem had no problem with it and he was the first to post. So
it can't be all that unclear.
I just don't like people trying to dictate to me how I'm suppose to think or
what I am thinking about.
"The answer was correct. It's the question we are having a problem with"
Thats just total BS. Now maybe I did overreact. If so then I apologize.
But when I read that I read that Geoff is telling me that my question is
wrong. I'll be damned if questions are wrong. Questions are not
propositions. He could have just said "Hey, I don't understand what your
exactly trying to do." instead of trying to make seem like I'm wrong and
he's right kinda crap. Its not about who's smarter or who's wrong or right
but about solving the problem.
In any case. Whether it was clear or not is unimportant at this point.
Janwillem got it from the start and even if my post was completely unclear
then someone should have been asking "Why would Janwillem say that instead
of what Toby said"?.
Hell, maybe I did overreact but statements like
"The answer was correct. It's the question we are having a problem with"
just piss me off to no end ;/ Its like someone trying to tell me that wrong
answers are right because its the question thats wrong. If I did that in a
class on a test and then after the test went up to him and said "no, the
answer is 1. Your question: "1+1="? is wrong because it should have been
"1+0="". You think he would say "Hey, thats great; Your right!! You get an
A+"? Even in a philosophy class that wouldn't work... even more so.
Wouldn't work in a business either. Its just wrong and Geoff is trying to
feed me that BS.
