Article with examples straight from a Book
-
I have come across an article What Happens during a PLINQ Query?[^] in which the examples were taken straight from the book LinQ to Objects Using C# 4.0 by Troy Magennis. The words in the article appear to be written by the CP member, but the examples are most definitely not his own. Please could someone just confirm this, and let me know if this is condoned or whether the article should be withdrawn. Many Thanks. [EDIt] The author in question has cited the book in his references, although the examples come verbatim from the book's code samples.[/EDIT]
...and I have extensive experience writing computer code, including OIC, BTW, BRB, IMHO, LMAO, ROFL, TTYL.....

Report it as plagiarized (in the article itself), and it will be dealt with.

Well, I do. If I were the original author and my hard work was being ripped off by somebody else, I wouldn't be best pleased.
