Any hints for page 4? I've caught the mistakes but don't know how to apply them?
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.

try looking in what directory you're in, then applying the mistakes.

There's only one common letter though! Now I'm the one feeling stupid ;)
