I am a junior in high school. I am experienced in programming in PostScript, and I enjoy creating random things that catch my interest. I have built a furnace for casting metal, I have my own ShopSmith (a ShopSmith is a combination table saw, drill press, lathe, disc sander, and horizontal boring machine), and I am very good with my hands. I play minecraft, and am a member of the Redstone Development Foundation, a group dedicated to creating contraptions and the like within minecraft.

comment Words for Product Status labels
You could add two more statuses, "beta" and "development", to that, if there would be any use for those labels.

But this does give several good examples of standards that are used. It's certainly a lot more useful than saying "go find a style manual".

@BillFranke what was meant by 6, 23–5, 7 is pages 6, 23, 24, 25, and 27, not the same thing as 6, 7, 23-5.

comment '2-3' or 'two to three' proper use
@JohnBentin Not that any actual professional would do that (the circuit or the notation mistake), but this could easily happen in a low-quality textbook.

comment '2-3' or 'two to three' proper use
@JohnBentin The wall supply voltage, $v$, to a circut is guaranteed to be within 110–120 VAC. The supply is fed through the a transformer with 500 primary windings and two secondary coils of 200 and 300 windings each, giving an output of (*note, a real book would have LaTeX here - the stuf between the '$'s denotes LaTeX) $v_1 = \frac{200}{500} * v = 44–48 VAC$ and $v_2 = \frac{300}{500} v = 66–72 VAC$. The resulting voltages are fed into an ideal op-amp subtraction circut, with $v_1$ as the negative value. The resulting voltage is then $v_r$ = $v_2 - v_1$ = 66–72 - 44–48 VAC = 22–24 VAC$.
