A Regular Expression Matcher Code Listing |
In the code listing for the matchhere function in the chapter "A Regular Expression Matcher", a line reads:
returnmatchhere(regexp+1, text+1);
. I believe that the correct line is:
return matchhere(regexp+1, text+1);
Note from the Author or Editor:
The reader is correct. There should be a space after the return keyword. This problem exists only in the Safari version, not the printed book. |

5th paragraph 2nd to last complete sentence on page |
Sentence reads "... has an opcode of Ldc_R8, which will load an 8-bit real (that is, a floating-point number) on the stack.
I believe 8-bit should be 8-byte.
Note from the Author or Editor:
The reader is correct. Please change "8-bit" to "8-byte" on p. 121 |

Note from the Author or Editor:
lease change "mod 31" to "mod 32" as the reader indicated. |

"Simon Peyton Jones" is incorrectly alphabetized. His last name is "Peyton Jones" not "Jones". The same mistake also occurs in the index.
