Timed Waits and bad documentation...

Anyone else notice that the help files that come with NetLinx Studio say that timed waits are measured in 1/100s of a second, but in reality they're 1/10s of a second? Am I missing something or is this just another fat finger mistake in the help file?
What are the rest of you using for programming reference guides? Is there a better set of documents out there or am I stuck with the horrible help file?

BTW - never noticed what you mentioned. I always just visualize the decimal point one over from the last digit. I know it's corny, but hey - whatever works! And I can't quite answer your question directly either though since I'm horrible in math and mathematical terminology - tenths, thousandths, hundredths . . . it all confuses me.
They are, just ten at a time
Seriously though, is your help file different than mine? Mine says:
Parameters:
time - A constant or variable indicating the wait time. Time is expressed in 1/10th second units.

I see in the parameters list that it is in fact 1/10s.
Thanks,

P.S.
This is all from memory at the moment, so someone please correct me if I am wrong.
