Hmm, I don't see any typos or missing text. However, I agree - it was quite an interesting read.

It says “The product of all the numbers from 1 to 10 (meaning 1 x 2 x 3 x…x 9 x 10, and usually written 10)”. I don’t think that product is usually written as 10.  https://punster.me/images/wink.gif

It is often written as 10! and is said in speech as "ten factorial".
