Greetings,

This report concerns Emacs version 24.2.1. In the section of
documentation quoted below, 'fifth example' should read 'fourth
example' and 'fourth example' should read 'third example'.

Cheers,
Carlos

BEGIN_QUOTED_SECTION

2.3.4 Symbol Type

Here are several examples of symbol names.  Note that the `+' in the
fifth example is escaped to prevent it from being read as a number.
This is not necessary in the fourth example because the rest of the name
makes it invalid as a number.

foo                 ; A symbol named `foo'.
FOO                 ; A symbol named `FOO', different from `foo'.
1+                  ; A symbol named `1+'
                                        ;   (not `+1', which is an integer).
\+1                 ; A symbol named `+1'
                                        ;   (not a very readable name).
