A: Questions easily answered by studying a beginner-level book Beginner questions are not a "huge problem" for StackOverflow. They are the main reason SO got big at all.

A: grep AND search for multiple words in files Between-lines relations are not easy to look for with grep, which is a line filter. You could use a regex that spans lines, but I find this annoying because of all the flags you have to set. Grep has a switch for printing the filenames instead of matching lines.
