 The kinds of  questions one can  ask regarding the  dependent entities
 within an expression are as follows:
 
-  * What user defined or local variables, vectors or strings are used?
+  * What user defined variables, vectors or strings are used?
   * What functions or custom user functions are used?
   * Which variables, vectors or strings have values assigned to them?

 as being candidates for assignment.
