    study the single point method ...

    The algorithm fails at higher order
    roots (@pxref{Higher Order Root}) and
    ill-conditioned roots of order one.

    Use tex(1), @emph{not} latex(1) to process
    your Texinfo files.

    Info files @strong{cannot} contain high
    resolution graphics.

    Ensure the latest version of
    @file{texinfo.tex} is installed on your Linux box.

    More information on Texinfo can be
    found at @url{http://texinfo.org/}.

    Prefer the two-argument form of
    @code{bless}, this is, always write
    @code{bless $objref, $class}.

    Angle brackets (@samp{<}, @samp{>}) are the
    main delimiters used in HTML.

    The Perl command @code{bless} is best called
    with two arguments, like @code{bless
    @var{object_reference}, @var{classname}}.

    Within emacs, type @kbd{C-h i} to start the
    built-in Info browser, or type @kbd{M-x
    info}.

    The two most important shell commands are
    @command{ls} and @command{cd}.

    Option @option{--html} forces
    @command{makeinfo} to generate HTML output
    instead of Info.

    @example
        makeinfo --html --output=@var{output-filename} @var{input-filename}
