    • Chi-Yu Li pointed out a typo and an error in one of the code examples.
    • Doan Thanh Nam corrected an example.
    • Muhammad Saied translated the book into Arabic, and found several errors in the process.
    • Marius Margowski found an inconsistency in a code example.
    • Leslie Klein discovered another error in the series expansion of exp(−x2), identified typos in the card array figures, and gave helpful suggestions to clarify several exercises.
    • Micah Lindstrom reported half a dozen typos and sent corrections.
    • James Riely ported the textbook source from LaTeX to Sphinx.
