At times, it's witty. I like the way you use three famous people from

Here's a list of typos:

* Page 9, 3rd point
- Please consider submitting you code to Sage
+ Please consider submitting your code to Sage

* Page 15, code example
- sage: preparse("2")
- ’Integer(1)/Integer(2)’
+ sage: preparse ("1/2")
+ ’Integer(1)/Integer(2)’

* Page 26
This page refers to a wiki page for more information about
writing/formatting docstrings. As of Sage 4.0.2, the developer's guide
also has such information. In fact, the information on
writing/formatting docstrings as contained in the developer's guide is
adapted from the wiki page. See this section of the developer's guide:

- sage -b main to return the the upstream version of Sage
