Amiga Format request

Since I´m trying to learn to programming in C I´m following AF C code tutorials but I do not have AF 117 (December 1998) so I have download the AF 117 C tutorial from Amiga Magazine Rack but as the code it´s blurred and I can´t see the printed code.
Can someone scan the "C tutorial" in high resolution (only page 79) and the "Under the bonnet" tutorial (pages 80, 81) from AF 117 (December 1998) to me, please?

Many thanks for your effort Galaxy
Would be too much work for you if I beg for a scan of the "Under the bonnet" tutorial from same magazine? (AF117 pages 80,81)
Thanks

Amiga C Tutorials

Out of curiosity, I too have downloaded AF117 page 79 from the Amiga Magazine Rack and I can see exactly what you mean.

This website:
http://www.xorotude.com/ami_c_tute/
hosts a set of C tutorials with code examples taken from Amiga Format, AmigActive and CU Amiga magazines.

In each case, the tutorials are scanned magazine pages presented in pdf format and the example code boxout graphics are in lha archives, which also contain transcripts of the tutorial text.

Unfortunately, the Amiga Format C Tutorial pdf document (6.19Mo) is in the same low resolution as the AMR scan, and the code examples archive (730ko) only covers chapters 1-4.

I don't know about the extracts from the other magazines, as I wasn't interested in those.

However, the scanned tutorial was useful in revealing that the final chapter (13) in AF121 refers to an "AFCD37:-In_The_Mag-/C-Course on this month's CD".

I have the AF116 and AF121 magazines covering this series and, crucially, I also have the AFCD37.

I keep getting server errors both when I try to upload the archived C-Course files to the Zone for you and to attach them to a message in this thread, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

When I have solved this problem, these files will be available to you.

Wish me luck.

I'm sure this will help with the C programming, but not with the "Under the bonnet" tutorial, I'm afraid.
