Congratulations Kumar ... Enjoy and have fun ....

It is a good point when you stuck on something just leave it and come back
later. I remember this was one of the important advices I have got from
professors during my uni. But be careful if this task is a CORE task then
you have to sort it out before proceeding! Otherwise not only this task you
will loose, but also all other dependent tasks all over your lab!
