Arthur, I appreciate your comment but just tell me the limitations of my question. Have I asked a silly question or a too hard question that you people are passing comments instead of giving me solution.

You have not asked a silly question, nor do I suspect it is too hard. What it does lack is context. We generally want question here to not be just problem statements (which is frowned upon, and attracts down votes and close votes), but rather a more fleshed-out post containing some details about what you have tried and where you are stuck. This will help us gauge your level so that we can write an answer which actually helps you.
