2018-08-09Fix violation of documentation rulesBjörn Gustavsson
In the documentation, we don't use contractations such as "don't" or "that's". We also avoid abbreviations. "i.e." should be written out as "that is". In this case it is better to omit it altogether. 629ad2e0971ef introduced the violation.
2018-08-08Add clarification on nil typeBrujo Benavides
