X9a: bug reports

Did you spot some mistakes in the course material or maybe bugs in this submission system? Please report them in our Zulip discussion forum, using the stream #bugs! Once you have reported at least 3 mistakes (any genuine mistakes count, as long as you are the first person to report them in Zulip), you can gain points for this task — just submit the list of bugs that you reported. No specific format is required, any human-readable plain text file is fine.
