📝 Detailed Changes

Binary (1 issues)

  1. qe-binary-002 - Binary Package Documentation
    • Location: Lines 40-42 (JAX note)
    • Issue: The note about JAX should be more specific about local installation requirements, particularly for GPU support which requires additional system-level dependencies.
    • Current: ````{note}
      This lecture uses JAX for GPU acceleration. If you have access to a GPU, JAX will automati...`
    • Fixed: ````{note}
      This lecture uses JAX for GPU acceleration. If you have access to a GPU, JAX will automati...`
    • Explanation: Per qe-binary-002, when using binary packages with Python frontends (JAX has CUDA dependencies), we should add explanatory notes about local installation requirements. The current note mentions GPU usage but doesn't adequately explain the local installation requirements for GPU support.

Code (1 issues)

  1. qe-code-003 - Operator Spacing
    • Location: Line 37 (pip install command)
    • Issue: The --upgrade flag should have a space after it for consistency with operator spacing conventions, though this is a minor style preference for command-line flags.
    • Current: !pip install --upgrade quantecon...
    • Fixed: !pip install --upgrade quantecon...
    • Explanation: Actually, upon closer inspection, this is correct as-is. Command-line flags follow different conventions than Python operators. No change needed.

Jax (1 issues)

  1. qe-jax-002 - GPU Admonition
    • Location: After imports section (should appear early in lecture when JAX is introduced)
    • Issue: The lecture uses JAX but is missing the mandatory GPU admonition warning about hardware acceleration.
    • Current: [No GPU admonition present]...
    • Fixed: ````{note}
      This lecture uses JAX for GPU acceleration. If you have access to a GPU, JAX will automati...`
    • Explanation: Per qe-jax-002, when using JAX with GPU capabilities, the standard GPU admonition must be included to inform readers about hardware acceleration behavior.

Ref (1 issues)

  1. qe-ref-004 - Cross-Series Links
    • Location: Installation note section
    • Issue: External link to JAX documentation should use proper reference format if this is a cross-reference to another QuantEcon series, or remain as external link if truly external.
    • Current: See the [JAX installation guide](https://jax.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html) for detaile...
    • Fixed: See the [JAX installation guide](https://jax.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html) for CUDA an...
    • Explanation: This is an external link (not QuantEcon content), so standard markdown is correct. However, the text was improved in Violation 2 for brevity. No change needed for reference format.

Title (2 issues)

  1. qe-title-001 - Lecture Titles

    • Location: Line 23 (main title)
    • Issue: The word "and" in the title is not capitalized. All words in lecture titles must be capitalized.
    • Current: # Additive and Multiplicative Functionals...
    • Fixed: # Additive And Multiplicative Functionals...
    • Explanation: Per qe-title-001, ALL words in lecture titles must be capitalized, including conjunctions like "and".
  2. qe-title-002 - Section/Subsection Headings

    • Location: Line 28 (main heading)
    • Issue: The main heading capitalizes multiple words beyond the first word and proper nouns. According to the rule, only the first word and proper nouns should be capitalized.
    • Current: # Additive And Multiplicative Functionals...
    • Fixed: # Additive and multiplicative functionals...
    • Explanation: Per qe-title-002, only the first word should be capitalized in headings (unless there are proper nouns, which there are not in this case). "And" and "Multiplicative" should be lowercase.

Writing (19 issues)

  1. qe-writing-002 - One-Sentence Paragraphs

    • Location: Overview section, first paragraph
    • Issue: Paragraph contains multiple sentences instead of one sentence per paragraph
    • Current: Many economic time series display persistent growth that prevents them from being asymptotically st...

  1. qe-writing-006 - Capitalization - General
