 The following example shows how we can manipulate polyhedra using LinPy.
 Let us define two square polyhedra, corresponding to the sets ``square1 = {(x, y) | 0 <= x <= 2, 0 <= y <= 2}`` and ``square2 = {(x, y) | 2 <= x <= 4, 2 <= y <= 4}``.
@@ -22,31 +24,32 @@ Then, we can build the :class:`Polyhedron` object ``square1`` from its constrain
 
 >>> square1 = Le(0, x, 2) & Le(0, y, 2)
 >>> square1
-And(Ge(x, 0), Ge(-x + 2, 0), Ge(y, 0), Ge(-y + 2, 0))
+And(0 <= x, x <= 2, 0 <= y, y <= 2)
 
 LinPy provides comparison functions :func:`Lt`, :func:`Le`, :func:`Eq`, :func:`Ne`, :func:`Ge` and :func:`Gt` to build constraints, and logical operators :func:`And`, :func:`Or`, :func:`Not` to combine them.
 Alternatively, a polyhedron can be built from a string:
 
 >>> square2 = Polyhedron('1 <= x <= 3, 1 <= y <= 3')
 >>> square2
-And(Ge(x - 1, 0), Ge(-x + 3, 0), Ge(y - 1, 0), Ge(-y + 3, 0))
+And(1 <= x, x <= 3, 1 <= y, y <= 3)
 
 The usual polyhedral operations are available, including intersection:
 
->>> inter = square1.intersection(square2)
+>>> inter = square1.intersection(square2) # or square1 & square2
 >>> inter
-And(Ge(x - 1, 0), Ge(-x + 2, 0), Ge(y - 1, 0), Ge(-y + 2, 0))
+And(1 <= x, x <= 2, 1 <= y, y <= 2)
 
 convex union:
 
 >>> hull = square1.convex_union(square2)
 >>> hull
-And(Ge(x, 0), Ge(y, 0), Ge(-x + y + 2, 0), Ge(x - y + 2, 0), Ge(-x + 3, 0), Ge(-y + 3, 0))
+And(0 <= x, 0 <= y, x <= y + 2, y <= x + 2, x <= 3, y <= 3)
 
 and projection:
 
->>> square1.project([y])
-And(Ge(x, 0), Ge(-x + 2, 0))
+>>> proj = square1.project([y])
+>>> proj
+And(0 <= x, x <= 2)
 
 Equality and inclusion tests are also provided.
 Special values :data:`Empty` and :data:`Universe` represent the empty and universe polyhedra.

 An example of domain is the set union (as opposed to convex union) of polyhedra ``square1`` and ``square2``.
 The result is a :class:`Domain` object.
