Details:

In the chapter OOP, an example says that "roots" is a method of "polynomial".

$  grep -C5 -n roots doc/interpreter/oop.txi 
153-For example:
154-
address@hidden
address@hidden
157-p = polynomial ([1, 0, 1]);
158:ismethod (p, "roots")
159-  @result{} 1
address@hidden group
address@hidden example
162-
address@hidden Class Methods


But in this whole chapter, no statement mentions that "roots" is a method of
"polynomial".

$  grep address@hidden doc/interpreter/oop.txi 
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/polynomial.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/disp.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/get.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/set.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/subsref.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/end.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/polyval.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/plot.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/double.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/mtimes.m)
@EXAMPLEFILE(@polynomial/polynomial_superiorto.m)


Although the file "examples/code/@polynomial/roots.m" does exist in the source
tree, the document reader does not know this.
