Closes #62.

Proofread src/ipep.typ, src/double.typ, src/chvar.typ, src/polar.typ, src/shorthand.typ (the files included under Part Golf). Found and fixed:

  • ipep.typ: "This is just turns out to be" → "This just turns out to be" (dropped stray "is"); "surface integrals translate directly into area integral" → "... area integrals" to match the parallel plural phrasing used for line integrals just above.
  • double.typ: "you ought to paying most attention" → "ought to pay" (modal verb needs bare infinitive); a worked example wrote int cos(xy) dif u instead of dif y (wrong differential variable); a later worked example had the dif x/dif y ordering backwards relative to the book's established convention (outer integral sign first, differentials in dif(inner) dif(outer) order), and kept a spurious leftover dif x in two more places after the x-integral had already been evaluated out.
  • chvar.typ: a Jacobian matrix entry was missing a minus sign (the same partial derivative was correctly computed with a minus sign two lines earlier in the same example); a comparison table displayed the polar Jacobian matrix transposed relative to the convention (and the correctly-derived version) used earlier in the same file — entries (1,2) and (2,1) were swapped; a stray extra v appeared in the general formula for factoring integrals over rectangles.
  • polar.typ: "upper half a circle" → "upper half of a circle" (missing preposition).

No large mathematical errors were found; all of the worked numerical examples (the change-of-variables area computations, the offset-circle polar integral, the (x^2+y^2)^(5/2) and 1/(x^2+y^2+17) polar integrals, and the quarter-disk center of mass) check out correctly by independent re-derivation. shorthand.typ had no issues.

  a later worked example had the dif x/dif y ordering backwards relative

  "dif x" in two places after the x-integral had already been evaluated.
