    Start by learning English... If your english is unreadable, what horror will be to read your code?
    All problems in computer science can be solved by another level of indirection,
    except for the problem of too many layers of indirection.

    if you have no idea how to implement it, I would suggest that you start with learning basic C++. It's like asking people to help you write a poem in an alien language when you don't even know a word in that language.

    btw, all caps is considered rude to many people.
