 The following functions can be used to request the pullback operator/function with or without the function value. In order to request the pullback function `pb_f` of a function `f` at the inputs `xs`, you can use either of:
 - `pb_f = AD.pullback_function(ab::AD.AbstractBackend, f, xs...)`: returns the pullback function `pb_f` of the function `f` at the inputs `xs`. `pb_f` is a function that accepts the co-tangents `vs` as input which is a tuple of length equal to the number of outputs of `f`. If `f` has a single output, `pb_f` can also accept a single input instead of a 1-tuple.
-- `value_and_pb_f = AD.value_and_pullback_function(ab::AD.AbstractBackend, f, xs...)`: returns a function `value_and_pb_f` which accepts the co-tangent `vs` as input which is a tuple of length equal to the number of outputs of `f`. If `f` has a single output, `value_and_pb_f` can accept a single input instead of a 1-tuple. `value_and_pb_f` returns a 2-tuple, namely the value `f(xs...)` and output of the pullback operator.
+- `value_and_pb_f = AD.value_and_pullback_function(ab::AD.AbstractBackend, f, xs...)`: computes the function value `v = f(xs...)` and returns a 2-tuple containing the value `v` and a function `pb_f` that accepts the co-tangent `vs` as input, which is a tuple of length equal to the number of outputs of `f`. If `f` has a single output, `pb_f` can accept a single input instead of a 1-tuple.
