 Write a program that calculates the similarity of 2 RNA sequences.
 
-* To compute the simalirity you need to parse a file containing the :download:`similarity matrix <_static/data/similarity_matrix>`.
+* To compute the similarity you need to parse a file containing the :download:`similarity matrix <_static/data/similarity_matrix>`.
   **Hint**: use the module containing the functions that handle a matrix from previous chapter.
   put this matrix.py file in a directory named "my_python_lib" in your home or Desktop
   and import it in your current program (the similarity script must be placed elsewhere).
