Oops!

A Junior at USF said he paid $180 for a textbook and it is riddled with errors.

One sentence reads: "A random sample of 50 pieces of plastic are being used 6mm these pieces of nylon rope are taken and the breaking strength (KN) is measured" 

Another error the student found was: Citing another example from the book, Richardson said, "We're told CI equals CI divided by N, which wouldn't make sense because you can't divide CI by something to get CI. That's like saying two divided by two equals four, which doesn't make sense."

 

Whoops! Maybe textbooks should be checked more closely next time! The student has since asked for a refund.
