Mobi | Page many... Paragraph endings |
The .mobi version of this book appears to be corrupted. Paragraphs are frequently cropped and missing the last few characters. For example, on page 13 the first paragraph follows the "Gem of Wisdom" and should read "= 123, as expected." On the kindle version the paragraph preceeds the gem and reads "= 123, as expect". Another example is the next paragraph which should read "which is, in decimal, 27." but on the kindle I only have "which is, in decimal," Note from the Author or Editor: |
