Prime tutorial buggy

I started to go through the tutorial in Prime 3.0 and found a couple of bugs right off the bat. Then I looked back at Prime 2.0 and it has the same error. It says that the exponentiation operator is x^n. But it really is listed as x^y. I know it isn't a big deal but it is sloppy. Also, exercise 2-1 is written sloppily and if a user follows the steps verbatim, the user will have an error.

Come on, PTC, get your act together!

Come on, PTC, get your act together!

Is that called a pipe dream?

Not only the program, even the help was easier to use in Mathcad 15 and below. Tutorials and quicksheets being protected ordinary Mathcad documents was a big advantage. Especially also compared to that awkward "copy expressions" button in the Prime help which obviously should compensate the disadvantage.

PTC getting their act together? That may take a while ...
