Proper PR with the changes requested

[greed2411]

This PR contains the changes mentioned in report, there were 13 broken links and all were found and replaced using Google, and biosql, biojava, biojava-legacy as requested by @peterjc , I hope I did it properly this time, if not mention, I would do it right away.

For the issue: #6

[peterjc]

Can you remove the results.md aka report_of_changes.md file from the pull request please?

[peterjc]

These should be round brackets not the less than/greater than signs (for markdown links).

[peterjc]

@hlapp I'm not sure if we should be linking to an Elsevier copyright book here - would a reference perhaps with ISBN 1-55860-920-2 be better?

[hlapp]

I agree, the PDF is probably unintentionally public, and is fragile as it's subject to a DMCA takedown notice from the copyright holder. I'd suggest to use the ISBN link, here's the one through Worldcat: https://www.worldcat.org/search?q=isbn%3A0128007613

[greed2411]

Done, Sir.

[peterjc]

I noticed one link markup problem, and queried linking directly to a copyright book, but otherwise this looks good. Thanks for working on this.

[greed2411]

I did the changes you asked for Sir, , I removed the report_of_changes.md and changed <> to ()

As of rights to use that link for the book, I can't say anything you guys decide.

I've got one humble request to ask you @peterjc I know it's too much to ask, but this is my first contribution to open source and you guys have directed me in the right way, and I can't thank enough, I've started pursuing bioinformatics and going to be a sophomore, Is it okay to ask to be a part of your organization @biosql, I just did the documentation, but sure can help you guys a lot in the near future. What do you say?

Thanks, for the opportunity.

[peterjc]

BioSQL is not currently a very active project, so it is lucky to have you making your first open source project contributions here:

https://github.com/biosql/biosql/graphs/contributors
https://github.com/biosql/biosql.github.io/graphs/contributors

If this and SQL is something you are interested in, then perhaps you might like to work on the programming language specific bindings for BioSQL in Perl, Python, Ruby or Java, under the BioPerl, Biopython, BioRuby or BioJava projects respectively?

However, there are hundreds of open source bioinformatics tools and projects, so if you approach learning new tools with this kind of positive attitude you are bound to be able to make other useful contributions - probably starting with documentation fixes, but later code bug fixes, etc.

I'm going to leave further review of this pull request to Hilmar (BioSQL project lead) to approve.

[greed2411]

Yes thanks a lot, I'll try to make my learning curve steeper in the upcoming days and try to contribute as much as possible to you guys and other Open Source projects.

Nonetheless, thanks for this opportunity @peterjc for being supportive throughout the PR and @hlapp for BioSQL.

Hi @jaiimmortal - as @peterjc's comment, with your contribution you've become part of the Biosql contributors already 😄 But if you're interested in engaging more with the wider community that the Biosql project is a part of, you might want to check out the Open Bioinformatics Foundation (OBF). OBF does maintain a membership to which you can sign up if you haven't already. And it'd be great to see you at a BOSC conference.

[greed2411]

Ooh thanks for that information, and I can't express my gratitude properly @hlapp , I'll stick around and start helping out ppl, and thanks for the invite but I don't think I can attend the conference, I'm from India.
