 DESCRIPTION
     Returns the least non-negative integer n for which abs(x) < b^n.
 
-    digits(x, b) = 0  if and only if abs(x) <= 1.
+    digits(x, b) = 0  if and only if abs(x) < 1.
 
-    For real x with absolute value > 1, digits(x, b) is the number
+    For real x with absolute value >= 1, digits(x, b) is the number
     of digits in the standard base-b "decimal" representation of int(abs(x));
     this is also given by  1 + ilog(x, b).
 
-    NOTE: both digits(0) and digits(1) return the value of 1.
-    This is not a bug, it is a feature of the above equation.  :-)
