 ===== UFIX 8.8 =====
-This is a 16-bit value in which 8 MSB represent the unsigned integer part of the number and the 8 LSB represent the fractional part. The fractional value is the ''LSB x 256'', i.e. the smallest "increment" for this format is ''1/256'' or ''0.00390625''.
+This is a 16-bit value in which 8 MSB represent the unsigned integer part of the number and the 8 LSB represent the fractional part. The fractional value is the ''LSB x 256'', i.e. the smallest "increment" for this format is ''1/256'' or ''0.00390625''.
 Numbers in this format represent a decimal range of ''[0.0..256)''.
