    <p>Dear Akhil,</p>
    <p>it is impossible to give you advice because you do not provide
      any detail about what you actually did, what you got, and why do
      you think it is not correct. In order to get a precise answer, you
      have to provide at least the full input and output, and summarize
      the results in a way that the experts reading here can understand
      without having to read pages of literature.<br>
