 Let's breakdown the above example:
-* For the first input series, the prometheus timesies returns an `empty query result` for 20 minutes (20*interval), then it is returning the value `1` for 20 minutes. Finally, it is returning the value `0` for 20 minutes.
+* For the first input series, the prometheus timeseries returns an `empty query result` for 20 minutes (20*interval), then it is returning the value `1` for 20 minutes. Finally, it is returning the value `0` for 20 minutes.
 This is a good example of an input series for testing an `up` query.
 * The second series introduce a timeseries which first returns a `0` value and which adds `600` every minutes (=interval) for 40 minutes. After 40 minutes it has reached a value of `24000` (600x40) and goes on by adding `400` every minutes for 40 more minutes.
 This is a good example of an input series for testing a `range` query.
