A user asked for a complex algorithm. I answered in detail , which took me some time. The user then mentioned (politely) in a comment that he would like me to provide code. Writing the code would take me a few weeks of work. What's the etiquette to explain to the user that while I did answer the question I am not going to do his/her job?
