hello,

what it is the good place or way to submit or correct errors and typos in
guile documentation?

for example here:
https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/while-do.html

the result of :

(do ((i 1 (1+ i))
     (p 3 (* 3 p)))
    ((> i 4)
     p)
  (format #t "3**~s is ~s\n" i p))

is not 789

but 243:

scheme@(guile-user)> (do ((i 1 (1+ i))
     (p 3 (* 3 p)))
    ((> i 4)
     p)
  (format #t "3**~s is ~s\n" i p))
3**1 is 3
3**2 is 9
3**3 is 27
3**4 is 81
243

this is not important but have to be corrected

Damien

Good catch!

You can send a patch (created using `git format-patch') to
bug-guile@gnu.org.

Hi,

I just fixed this in git, thanks for the report.

But yeah, if you have more, like Arun says, ideally send it to bug-guile. That way if no one gets to it immediately at least it will be tracked.
