--------------------------+---------------------------------
 The attached patch makes some minor changes to the Steenrod algebra code:

 - changes a few docstrings and comments
 - one bug fix (to make `SteenrodAlgebra(2, 'wood')` raise a more
 meaningful error) with doctest
 - cache the function `arnonC_basis` for a speed improvement. Before:
 {{{
 sage: %time B = SteenrodAlgebra(basis='arnon_c').basis(20)
 CPU times: user 2.44 s, sys: 0.17 s, total: 2.60 s
 Wall time: 2.51 s
 sage: %time B = SteenrodAlgebra(basis='arnon_c').basis(100) # takes a
 loooong time
 }}}
  After:
 {{{
 sage: %time B = SteenrodAlgebra(basis='arnon_c').basis(20)
 CPU times: user 0.01 s, sys: 0.00 s, total: 0.01 s
 Wall time: 0.01 s
 sage: %time B = SteenrodAlgebra(basis='arnon_c').basis(100)
 CPU times: user 0.57 s, sys: 0.10 s, total: 0.67 s
 Wall time: 0.60 s
 }}}
