Hi!

Thanks for the bug report.  Where did you get the manual you are looking
at?

> This is from section 2.2 of the Calc manual:

Using the CVS version of Emacs, section 2.2 of the Calc manual is the
Arithmetic Tutorial.

> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>    This manual is divided into three major parts: the "Getting Started"
> chapter you are reading now, the Calc tutorial (chapter 2), and the
> Calc reference manual (the remaining chapters and appendices).
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------

"About this manual", section 1.2, doesn't mention which chapter the
tutorial is.

> Perhaps that should say "chapter 4" instead? I.e. the tutorial seems to
> be numered chapter 4 now.

Also, the tutorial is chapter 2 here.
Perhaps you are using a different version of the manual, or processed it
differently.  How did you get the manual?

Jay
