Shouldn't the 'volatile' keyword be documented? I didn't see it in the text, and it's not in the index.

First sentence after heading "Using Code Examples"

The sentence states: "The programs and code snippets in this book is available are all available as interactive samples in LINQPad..."

Remove "is available "

2nd paragraph

"Integral literals can use decimal or hexadecimal notation; hexadecimal is denoted with 0x prefix (e.g., 0x7f is equivalent to 127). Real literals may use decimal or exponential notation such as 1E06."

It seems to me that the first word ("Integral") in this paragraph must be a typo and should read "Integer". "Integral literals" would encompass more than numeric types therefore the sentence doesn't make sense as it is currently written. When considered with the subsequent sentence quoted above, which goes on to explain the other numeric type "Real", it is even more apparent that "Integer" was the intention of the authors.

is incorrect and should be removed because both >= and < have already been correctly indexed.
