I don't know what languages do you know/uses, but compiled languages as I already said, translates all variable names to numeric memory addresses. Also, all comments are stripped and the control structures itself are translated to machine instructions (machine language). All that rests is binary numbers.
You cannot even may distinguish a "for" from a "while" statement inside the code.
The variables, comments and the program structure are all lost. Only the authors have the source code , and I think they are not going to publish it.
So, I think it is too expensive to be worthy a try.
