Section 3.1 says:
P[i] The ith plaintext key data block
C[i] The ith ciphertext data block
A The 64-bit integrity check register
R[i] An array of 64-bit registers where
i = 0, 1, 2, ..., n
A[t], R[i][t] The contents of registers A and R[i] after
encryption step t.
It should say:
P[i] The ith (64-bit) plaintext key data block
where i = 1, 2, ..., n
C[i] The ith (64-bit) ciphertext data block
where i = 0, 1, 2, ..., n
A The 64-bit integrity check register
R[i] An array of 64-bit registers where
i = 1, 2, ..., n
A[t], R[t][i] The contents of registers A and R[i] after
encryption step t.
