Its strange how we sometimes take a very difficult path to things that are very simple. Its just the prejudiced view in which we see that thing thinking that it is difficult and there is NO easy way of doing it.
I have heard a small story which is not exactly about the same thing, but still similar, which appealed to me, so thought of putting it here
One day, in a Philosophy class, the professor came in and announced that he is going to take a surprise test. He took his chair, put it on top of the table and said to the students "I want you to defy existence of this chair". That was the only question for the test.
People started writing pages after pages for the same, except for one person, who got up in one minute, gave back the answer paper and walked out.
Later on, when the results were out, the guy who left had topped the class. His answer paper consisted of only 2 words.................. "What Chair!!!".
