Asking questions about published Go problems

[alisbarbe]

Hello

So I read a good book introducing me to the game of Go, been playing games against a computer and am now reading a Go problem book (Graded Go Problems for Beginners, Volume 2, Elementary Go Problems).

I can handle most problems and if not the solutions help me understand. However I found one (up to now) where I don't understand the answer. May I ask a question (including the author's answers) about such problems in this forum, would this be a copyright breach?

Thanks a lot

Alistair

It's fine to ask a question about some specific problems, as long as you don't ask about every problem

thanks, I'll try and keep it to a minimum

It's OK to include the author's answer. However, given the level of the problems you are doing, virtually everyone on this forum who replies to your question will understand the problem very well and will be able to give you a good explanation of it. If their answers differ from the book answer, it is probably because of a typo in the book or something like that.
