Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning

This: Quick Start: AutoCAD 2D Drawing using C# with AutoCAD COM API - CodeProject[^]
From this: VR Karthikeyan - Professional Profile - CodeProject[^]
Popped up in moderation as modified.
But...that smells plagiarised, so I quickly checked with Google, and it is.
See here: ~~springer[^]~~
Try this one: Via google[^]
Search both for "represents a single line of alphanumeric characters" and you'll see.

It has been approved meanwhile which resets all other approval period reports and must be therefore reported again.

Another article that got approved without checking the comments (I refer to mine about unclear image copyright). But I missed this post that it is plagiarised too.

BTW @OriginalGriff: The Springer link does not work for me (page not found).

It seems to work if you open it from Google:
autocad com api "represents a single line of alphanumeric characters" site:springer.com[^]

Strange: I can still see it:

Step 4: Adding Caption to Circle
Before creating the caption, lets refer AcadText in the Autocad object model,

AcadText Object
The AcadText object represents a single line of alphanumeric characters. This object differs
from the AcadMText object in that it creates only a single line of text, whereas the AcadMText
object creates a paragraph of text. The AcadText object is created using the AddText method
of the AcadBlock, AcadModelSpace, or AcadPaperSpace object.
