                (it's not that simple for us!!!)   
      
      
            What is it?   give me a keyword (describing the method)   
                 so i can Google or ask my AI.   
      
      
           Or...  give us a few  simplest  problems   
                                  to  get us  initiated...  Thanks!   
      
      
                  i tried to look for a Bootleg PDF file of   
                   J.D.A's  (GOAT mathematicians)  book,   
                          i'll try the ultimate Shadow-Library maybe later.

           I guess...  Neville  Chamberlain   is  the  ultimate foil,  which   
                         makes W.Churchill look great.   
      
                     is he the greatest such foil in history?
