Here's a key to the markup:
	[page-number]: serious technical mistake
	{page-number}: minor technical mistake
	<page-number>: important language/formatting problem
	(page-number): language change or minor formatting problem



{62}  code 2/3 down the page;
char full_name[10];

NOW READS:
char name[10];

in two places.



{66} Example 5-12;
        int main() {
            std::cout ......

}




[259] IN PRINT: Top paragraph(the syntax for an open call);

file_descriptor = open(name, flags);  // Existing file
int file_descriptor = open(name, flags, mode);   // New file
