Given I haven't shown ANY arithmetic is very difficult to have shown
that either I know or do not know it. You are the only one posting
pages of seudo operations and algorithms, not me.

Same as before. I have stated I know it. Beside that I have exposed
nothing about my knowledge of it.

I have stated, or affirmed that I have read it and understood it and
that I own more than one copy.

You say I have not, ok, that's an opinion based on what?

Oh, feel free to have serious doubts. I have not proven it.

C and TAOCP? Any way feel free to think any way you like, you live in
a free country.

This here is more serious. You are accusing me of borrowing an unnamed
piece of code. I would like to know what piece of code you acuse me of
borrowing, and wher did I borrowed it from.

I'm very careful on what code I put in public places. Tell me please.
List is archived, so it should be easy to locate the place.

Again, which code am I accused from borrowing?
