Comment (by anonymous):

 '''Correction:''' The comment for ''left_subtract'' is correct and should
 read as is ("The part of \c right '''right''' of \c left_minuend."). It's
 the comment for ''right_subtract'' that's wrong. It reads "Return the
 difference: The part of \c left '''right''' of \c right_minuend." the word
 in '''bold'''should read "left".

 Clarification: The extra check I added is already present in
 ''right_subtract'' so efficiency arguments seem not to apply.
