Q is "How much you learned today?" how many female participants in answering the question Q. If they answers, then average of A1 and average of A2 ( A1. A2 means two types of answers). They put the numbers in those 2 types. They are allowed to choose either of the answer type, but not the both. So, if any female F1 provides 80 to A2, in that day, she wouldn't be allowed to answer for A1. Same stands for male and <non-gender> also. -- ================ Regards, Arup Rakshit ================ Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.
