... directory.

Note the use of forward slashes in the path. On the Macintosh OS X and Linux operating systems, and in Python, forward slashes are used to indicate separations in the path components. On Windows, backward slashes are used instead. Python can actually use forward slashes and translate them appropriately on Windows or other operating systems as needed, so we will use the convention of forward slashes throughout the text, for generality.

...variables

Because of the dependencies on variables of other datasets, the correct call is
ds1.compute_variables(["pkg.ds1.my_variable"], dataset_pool=pool) where pool is constructed as described in Section 22.7.1 and contains datasets ``ds2'' and ``ds3''. We simplify the notation here for a better readability.
