Thank you, Branodn and Doug for quick reply!
The word "upper bound" is also used in Japan with mathematics.
I think it means that the implementation of quick_ratio() is not
defined in
a lot of detail, except to say that the function will return a
value that is
an upper bound of the value returned by ratio().
That's the answer I wanted!!
I've got "This isn't defined beyond that" means
"This method is not defined in detail more than".
I've misread that "beyond" means "over the upper bound".
Maybe, "more" is easier than "beyond" for non-native English
readers.
I agree that the current English phrasing is confusing to non-native
speakers. You should open a ticket in the tracker and ask for that
text to be clarified.
Doug
Thank you very well.
