Chapter number or note title: section 11.4 Tuple Selection - example Exam Scheduling

Page number: 357 (as marked on page), 377/472 (as shown by PDF reader)

Error description: mid-page the text has let N = n + r + t p denote the total size of the input, there might be a missing "+" between the number of time slots t and the number of proctors p.

Suggested fix (if any): rephrase to let N = n + r + t + p denote the total size of the input.

Thank you for this invaluable resource!
