Replying to [comment:9 knsam]:
> The description in the patch says: 'at the very least there should be
something in the calculus section(s) to the effect of "If you get a
NameError?, check to see if you either misspelled something or forgot to
define a variable with var(...)"'.
>
> I think this could be done, by adding a note. Can you please do this, so
that there is an explicit place where this is explained? I am also
thinking if it might be possible to implement the first suggestion in the
description. Hope you'd find an appropriate place to do so.
Done! I added it to a separate patch, so you can pick either one, or both
:-)
