  b. 4

While writing AsI, Chopin committed 2 rhythmic mistakes – the third bass F is a quaver, and not a semiquaver, while the 4th R.H. hemidemisemiquaver group was initially written with five beams, hence in twice as short rhythmic values. The latter was subsequently corrected by combining the two topmost beams into one.
