Oh the docs messed up. lol! It was in the notes reference guide at the octave
checks section.
Here is the example they gave.
\relative c'' {
c2 d='4 d
e2 f
}
so I followed the directions unless I just red it wrong. lol! whichI probably
did as I was rushing to get the assignment done. lol!
Take care and be blessed.
