Loved your Langford Pairing blog post. Found a small error in the proof of sufficiency. I think the value of \( c \) should be \( 4x - 1 \) and not \( 4x - 3 . \) Great blog post though!

Wonderful Langford Pairing post. By the way, I believe there is a small typo in the formula for \( c. \) It should be \( c = 4x - 1. \)

Thank you, Ikiatl and Presh, for your comments. The formula for \( c \) indeed had a typo. Although I wrote the correct values for \( c \) obtained from the formula \( c = 4x - 1 \) in the examples, the formula itself was written incorrectly as \( c = 4x - 3. \) I have corrected Langford Pairing to use \( c = 4x - 1 \) now.

Read Nested Code Fenches in Markdown. Nice post! One tiny correction in this sentence:

So when we put Becky within a code span, the first backtick in Corey's face would terminate the code span immediately and then the rest of Becky would lie outside it.

I think that "Corey" should instead be "Becky".

Dan, Thank you for the correction. Yes, that should indeed be 'Becky'. I have made the correction now.
