Yes, In Rajan's email. of (my-tome) Tuesday 4:24am, so I guess Monday
(your time), It was from Shiv Maddanimath

     Page 6: Paragraph 30 Description of reduc_sumprod

     In statement " The reduc_sumprod functions compute the dot

     This is summation of dot products of corresponding array members from
     p and q but wording states it computes dot product which means its a
     dot product of all p and q members.

I would normally not say more. But, if one person is confused by the 
wording, maybe others will be. Mind you, as I said, I think that Shiv
does not quite understand what a dot product is. So maybe just lesve it.
