Corrections and Updates

Mistakes we have fixed, and how to tell us about one.

We check every formula and worked example by calculation before a page is published, and we cite our sources. Mistakes can still slip through. When a reader finds one and we confirm it, we fix the page, add a note under the “Checked” line at the end of that page, and list the correction here with its date.

Read how we write and check our pages for what “checked” means.
