List of typo's

[kordejong]

Dear authors,

Thank you for the Parallel C++ book. I enjoy reading it.

I think I found some typos in the book. I have not finished reading it completely, but here is the list I made so far. Page numbers are in PDF reader pages, not in book pages. I am not a native English speaker so I may be completely wrong with my suggestions.

Kind regards,
Kor

I will fix the code after I corrected all typos. Here is the list of open issues:

• 34: How the even/odd cases are handled in the code (lines 16-21) seem not in line with the even/odd cases in formula 3.3
• 40: Listing, line 22 → Variable "index" is not used (updated).
• 40: the variable index is incremented → Out of sync with the listing

Stopped at 69: Listing, line 29 → Are a header and namespace missing? Where does the PLL parallel_for come from? and will proceed soon.

@kordejong Thanks for the list of issues. I fixed all typos and will look into the code next week.

• 34: How the even/odd cases are handled in the code (lines 16-21) seem not in line with the even/odd cases in formula 3.3

That is correct and I updated the example and the book.
