Hi, yourself. The first thing you need to learn about is proper
usenet netiquette. Your post does not belong in comp.std.c at all, it
is a group for discussion about the ISO C international standard,
past, present, and future. Second, you multiposted, that is post the
same message to more than one group (two that I have seen so far)
separately. The proper method is cross-posting, after you make sure
(which you did not) that your message is topical in all the groups
involved.
I wanted the C source code in machine readable format for the book
"Numerical Recipes in C".
I want a billion dollars, want to trade?
I got hold of the pdf version of the book somehow. Does anyone have the
complete C code of the book?. If yes,..can you please mail me the code
or somehow share it with me?.
Oh, sorry, I want my million dollars legally. You seem to want
something illegally. Consider the web page
http://library.lanl.gov/numerical/bookcpdf.html, where the book is
available for electronic viewing, with permission of the copyright
holders. Did you notice this paragraph:
"Thanks to special permission from Cambridge University Press, we are
able to bring you the complete Numerical Recipes in C book On-Line! To
utilize this resource, you will need an Adobe Acrobat viewer linked as
a helper program to your web browser. Permission is granted by the
copyright owners for users of this resource to make one paper copy of
these Acrobat files for their own personal use. Further reproduction,
or the extraction of, or copying of, machine readable files to any
server computer, is strictly prohibited. This on-line resource is not
intended as a substitute for purchasing the book, or for obtaining a
license for the use of Numerical Recipes source code."
And then just a little farther down the page:
"Downloads of the Numerical Recipes source code in machine-readable
format are not available as part of this free resource. For
information on downloads, please go to the Numerical Recipes On-Line
Software Store."
I am pretty sure that you have seen this information, on this page or
one very much like it. Very few people use the phrase "machine
readable" in casual conversation or correspondence these days.
Apparently you are aware that the source code is not free, and should
be purchased for legal use. And apparently, you don't care, and
instead are trying to illegally steal copyrighted intellectual
property.
Most regulars in these two groups, and hopefully any others that you
posted this to, are very negative on the idea of stealing other
people's work, particularly their source code. That is because many
of the regulars here make a living as working programmers, and don't
want their work stolen either.
Thanks to Google's archive, you are now on record forever as someone
who wants to steal intellectual property. Consider the implications
of that.
