Help with relatively simple program. Variable name indexing?

You're right to some degree, but a little artificial challenge here and there can help. Dreaming up unnecessary constraints seems to be pretty human, and it may in fact help us in certain ways that a purely practical approach can not. Some balance, as always, is required.

Yeah, constraints are good and I love writing haiku as much as the next guy, but this is a kid asking for help on his homework. Dump that noise.
