/**
- * STL conforming iterator walking over the elements of a sparsity pattern.
+ * An iterator class for walking over the elements of a sparsity pattern.
*
* The typical use for these iterators is to iterate over the elements of a
* sparsity pattern (or, since they also serve as the basis for iterating
* over the elements of an associated matrix, over the elements of a sparse
- * matrix) or over the elements of individual rows. Note that there is no
+ * matrix), or over the elements of individual rows. There is no
* guarantee that the elements of a row are actually traversed in an order
- * in which columns monotonically increase. See the documentation of the
+ * in which column numbers monotonically increase. See the documentation of the
* SparsityPattern class for more information.
