    Everyone  is  permitted  to  copy  and  distribute  verbatim  copies  of  this  license  document,  but changing it is not allowed.
    Preamble
    The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it.    By  contrast,  the  GNU  General  Public  License  is  intended  to  guarantee  your  freedom  to share  and  change  free  software--to  make  sure  the  software  is  free  for  all  its  users.    This General  Public  License  applies  to  most  of  the  Free  Software  Foundation’s  software  and  to any other program whose authors commit to using it.  (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to your programs, too.
    When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price.  Our General Public Licenses  are  designed  to  make  sure  that  you  have  the  freedom  to  distribute  copies  of  free software  (and  charge  for  this  service  if  you  wish),  that  you  receive  source  code  or  can  get  it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.

    To  p r o t e c t  y o u r  r i g h t s ,  w e  n e e d  t o  m a k e  r e s t r i c t i o n s  t h a t  f o r b i d  a n y o n e  t o  d e n y  y o u these  rights  or  to  ask  you  to  surrender  the  rights.  These  restrictions  translate  to  certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if\
     you modify it.
    For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have.  You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
    We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
    Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software.  If the software is modified by someone else and passed  on,  we  want  its  recipients  to  know  that  what  they  have  is  not  the  original,  so  that  any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors’ reputations.
    Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents.  We wish to avoid the danger  that  redistributors  of  a  free  program  will  individually  obtain  patent  licenses,  in  effect making the program proprietary.  To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.
    The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. 
    Terms & conditions for copying, distribution, & modification
    0. This  License  applies  to  any  program  or  other  work  which  contains  a  notice  placed  by the  copyright  holder  saying  it  may  be  distributed  under  the  terms  of  this  General  Public License.    The  “Program”,  below,  refers  to  any  such  program  or  work,  and  a  “work  based on  the  Program”  means  either  the  Program  or  any  derivative  work  under  copyright  law: that  is  to  say,  a  work  containing  the  Program  or  a  portion  of  it,  either  verbatim  or  with modifications and/or translated into another language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modification”.)  Each licensee is addressed as “you”.   
     Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they  are  outside  its  scope.    The  act  of  running  the  Program  is  not  restricted,  and  the output  from  the  Program  is  covered  only  if  its  contents  constitute  a  work  based  on  the Program  (independent  of  having  been  made  by  running  the  Program).  Whether  that  is true depends on what the Program does. 
    1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program’s source code as you receive it,  in  any  medium,  provided  that  you  conspicuously  and  appropriately  publish  on  each copy  an  appropriate  copyright  notice  and  disclaimer  of  warranty;  keep  intact  all  the notices  that  refer  to  this  License  and  to  the  absence  of  any  warranty;  and  give  any  other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.\
     You  may  charge  a  fee  for  the  physical  act  of  transferring  a  copy,  and  you  may  at  your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. 
    2.  You  may  modify  your  copy  or  copies  of  the  Program  or  any  portion  of  it,  thus  forming  a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these condi\
    tions:
     a) You  must  cause  the  modified  files  to  carry  prominent  notices  stating  that  you  changed the files and the date of any change.
