mr.position([i]) description says : "Returns the character of the first position of sub-match i, which defaults to 0"
The reference says "Returns the position of the first character of the specified match or sub-match." which is less ambiguous and the opposite of the definition above.
mr.format(str) description says "Returns a string with contents according to the format string str.
There are three special sequences: $' for the character before a match (the book uses the 'single quote' character after the dollar sign. The correct character is the 'backtick' character)"
NOTE: The second correction joins issue #111 , raised by @WraithGlade
Suggestion: Perhaps, it would also help avoid confusion by specifying the symbols being used in natural language (English in this case)
