Terminology Consistency: `this course` versus `these materials` #93

Closed agryman closed 1 year ago

agryman commented 2 years ago

Another small point but possibly worth resolving. In general, a course may have other materials. Sometimes the book refers to this course. Sometimes the text refers to these materials. Is it refering to something in addition to the book? It might be simpler to uniformly refer to this course which is inclusive of everything.

I think that I'd like to remove the instances of "this course" in favor of "these materials". I also may have written "this book" or "this website". I was struggling whether I should call it a book, a website, or materials. I do want the primary chapters to be tied to the lessons we complete in the course and then some appendices for extra topics. Ideally I keep the course specific things on the course website and these materials can standalone.

I change "this course" to "these materials" going forward.

I'm changing things to "book".
