Under Academic Papers   there is a link to “Drs. Fotis Georgatos's MSc
thesis, How applicable is Python as first computer language for teaching
programming in a pre-university educational environment, from a teacher's
point of view?”



http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/0809/0809.1437.pdf



On the third page of the thesis it says “Each word of this thesis is
plagiarized. I have never generated a single word myself.”

So is this a real thesis? Was he making a joke? Is the link supposed to be
a Joke?



I’m asking since I quoted it twice and then someone asked me the same
question.
