Typos or odd English
« on: Aug 14th, 2003, 7:24am »

Ah, insomnia.  I couldn't sleep so I thought, 'Hey, why not peruse proce55ing.net to see if I can find any typos.  That'll make me tired'.
 
Here are the fruits of my labor.  All of the typos are really minor and are mostly indicated with ALL CAPS. I did not go through all the sections.  Most of my efforts were focused on Sonic, Video, Network, and Serial.
 
Additionally, I did not check this post for typos.  
 
 
 
speed() description --
"A value of 1.0 means no changes, 0.5 changed to half the speed and 2.0 doubles the speed."
Maybe change to "0.5 halves the speed"
 
 
samples() description --
"To use the samples[] array, sound should be initiated calling beginSound(length) inside the setup() method"
Change to "sound should be initiated BY calling ..."
 
 
soundEvent() description --
"An audio frame is an array of audio samples that can be access using"
Change to "that can be accessED using ..."
 
"An audio frame, similar to an video frame"
Change to "similar to A video frame"
 
 
stop() description --
"the object will start playing at the beggining."
Change to "beginning."
 
stop() parameters --
"Bsound or BVideo: object to be stopped"
Change to "BSound"
 
 
play() description --
"used to define the sample or frame the playback should start from"
Change to "used to define WHICH sample or ..."
 
 
loadSound() description --
"Sound are resampled when loaded"
Change to "SoundS are resampled when loaded"
 
 
beginNet() description --
"You can run the both client and server applications"
Change to "You can run BOTH THE client and ..."

In the ellipse() documentation, it says "rectangle" instead of "ellipse" under the parameter explanations.
