Thanks Shejialuo and Eric, I really appreciate both of your time and help. I am not frustrated at all and I see any changes as a perfect opportunity to learn something new. I have also learned from my mistake and your guidance and would keep it in mind for future submissions.

In that case, I will send the second patch. Thank you.
