    kaki: Adding a hint of a suggestion of a further specification to the very minimal info already provided in your OP is not likely to be productive.

    Were I roboticus, I might have added "(c) I'm not really interested in providing a free code-writing service" to the reply above. If you can show some significant effort, however basic, I'm sure there are many monks about the place who would be glad to help you. If this is an academic assignment, please reconsider the advice offered by roboticus. If this is a work assignment, showing effort is all the more important, but we are still glad to help because we all need to work for a living!

    It seems very strange that a boss would simply dump you in the swimming pool with such an assignment and give you no other help. Why don't you just ask him or her for help? It's all right to just be honest and say that you don't know how to do something; not at all good to lie be misleading about such things. And if this is an academic exercise, the same. Talk to your instructor immediately.
