It is the author's firm conviction that a good index does not compensate for a poor contents list. In this book therefore, the contents list is very detailed, with the intention that references to particular functions or operations can be made directly from it.
<Editorial Note: In the light of the above paragraph, no attempt has been made to reproduce the book's index. It would in any case be of limited value to reproduce all the page numbers, since these have been omitted from this web-based version>
