Topic: Documentation mistake in algebra.covariant_and_contravariant

I haven't found contribution guidelines for reporting an issue without making a pull request. Sorry if this isn't the appropriate channel.
There's a mistake in the documentation of algebra.covariant_and_contravariant.covariant_class
and algebra.covariant_and_contravariant.contravariant_class
that is currently online (link). For both, the second paragraph describes the parameters of the class and incorrectly indicates the type of the relation r
is N → N
when it is actually N → N → Prop
, as seen in the type signature.

For a simple documentation bug like this, I would just suggest making a PR for it, possibly using the "edit file" option in github if you don't have a mathlib contribution setup already. It will usually get merged without much fuss.

(Also this is the mathlib4 stream; discussion about mathlib usually goes in #general , #new members or #maths)
