Copyediting suggestions for Chapter 1 #122

Closed jtassia closed 6 years ago

jtassia commented 6 years ago

Hey Kyle,

In addition to the edits I committed to the 1st-ed branch of my fork, I had a couple queries/suggestions for Chapter 1. Let me know what you think.

Thanks! Jasmine

Edit suggestion # 1:

Original: "...what it should do. Perhaps more often than we should, we tend to rely on verification of our program's correctness by running test suites"

Suggestion: "...what it should do. More often than is perhaps prudent, we tend to rely on running test suites to verify our programs' correctness"

Edit suggestion # 2:

Original: "Someone who understands FP, and who's disciplined enough to diligently use throughout"

Suggestion: "Someone who understands FP, and who's disciplined enough to diligently use it throughout"

OR "Someone who understands FP, and who's disciplined enough to diligently apply the philosophy throughout"

I like these suggestions, sounds good to me. :)

Great! I'll go ahead and commit those changes to my branch. For the second one, do you prefer "diligently use it throughout" or "diligently apply the philosophy throughout" ?

getify commented 6 years ago

the first one is great

jtassia commented 6 years ago

Great, I've added these to my branch :)
