spelling, time, and the Index

[N. J. A. Sloane]

Dear Seqfans,  I spend far too much time correcting spelling errors, etc.

I have started a little section in the Index to the OEIS that lists
some of the most common errors.  At prsent it has these entries:

spelling and notation , <a NAME="spell">guide to (start):</a>
spelling and notation:  the following are the correct spellings for some words and symbol
s that are commonly mistyped in the OEIS:
spelling: a(n) for n-th term in sequence (not a[n])
spelling: color (not colour - the OEIS uses U.S. spelling)
spelling: dependent (not dependant)
spelling: dissectable (not dissectible)
spelling: e for 2.718281828... (not E)
spelling: Fibonacci (not fibonacci)
spelling: generalize (not generalise)
spelling: log(n) (not ln(x) or Log[x])
spelling: log_10(x) for logs to base 10
spelling: neighbor (not neighbour)
spelling: nonnegative (not non-negative)
spelling: nonzero (not non-zero)
spelling: occurring (not occuring)
spelling: Pi for 3.141592654... (not pi)
spelling: prime(n) (not p(n) or Prime(n), etc.)
spelling: recurrence (not recurence)
spelling: semiprime (not semi-prime)
spelling: sin(x) (not Sin[x])
spelling: tetranacci (not Tetranacci)
spelling: tribonacci (not Tribonacci)
spelling: zeros (not zeroes)

Following these simple rules will make you a better person (and save me time)
