  * Replace dramatic footnote with in-line comment about possible round-off errors in logarithms of large numbers.
  * Add comments to the pure python code equivalent.
  * replace floor() with int() in the mathematical equivalent so the type is correct (should be an int, not a float).
  * add abs() to the mathematical equivalent so that it matches the previous line that it is supposed to be equivalent to.
  * make one combined example with a negative input.
