Hi all,
I was dealing with an accademic article a while ago, and the editor suggested me to have a check on the English to make it better. After they reviewd, I noticed that they removed the sentence "in order to" every time I used it.
Phrases like:
- "...a series of experimental tests conducted in order to evaluate the algorithm... "
became:
- "...a series of experimental tests conducted to evaluate the algorithm... ".
Is there something wrong with this phrase that I completely ignore, or it was just a suggestion not to make the text too much verbose?
Thanks,
-Fabio
