If I may ask, how does this question relate to your previous similar
question(s)?  What do you want to do with these 5 files once you have
them?  (Differently put, does this question imply you've succeeded
with your previous question(s) and now you're onto the next step or a
different problem, or does this question imply you've given up with
the previous line of endeavour and are now just trying a new tack to
the same problem?)

Anyway, it seems to me you're trying to cobble something together for
your purposes from sources on the web without (possibly) really
understanding what the code is doing.  It may be easier and better in
the long run to just write your own solution to your own specific
problem requirements.

Regarding the code/formatting, as others have suggested, you should
ideally try to paste plaintext formatted with nothing more than
spaces, but you may also consider pasting your code using pastebin:
