Typo in button program

Hello from Gregg C Levine
Take a look at the phrase that describes how the person is supposed to
connect a button switch to the P0 pin. Shouldn't that "and" be an "an"
instead? Oh, I did figure out the program's meaning. And did get it to
work, it produced the expect results. The term "active-low pushbutton
circuit", was easy to figure out, and the help page explained it.

' Connect and active-low pushbutton circuit to pin P0 of the BS1.
When you
' press the BUTTON, the DEBUG screen will display an asterisk (*).
Feel
' free to modify the program to see the effects of your changes on the
way
' BUTTON responds.
'
' Try changing the Delay value (255) in BUTTON to see the effect of
its
' modes: 0 = No debounce; 1-254 = Varying delays before auto-repeat;
' 255 = No auto-repeat (one action per button press).
However the typo is also present in the help page example. Are those
resistors necessary?
