Section 2.6 (Algorithm 1) says:
bits += 8;
It should say:
bits = 8;
Notes:
"bits += 8;" is misleading and results in one useless addition.
This is true because this instruction appears after the program ensured that "bits == 0".
Therefore, "bits = 8;" is the actual instruction that should be executed here.
