Summary: Minor error in section 3.2

Initial Comment:
In the section "3.2 First Steps Towards Programming " of 
the Python tutorial (http://docs.python.org/tut/node5.html), 
the output of both implementations of the Fibonacci 
sequence computation is incorrect. 
 
As written, only one 1 should be output.  
You should either remove one 1 from the input,  
or replace the lines "print b" and "print b,"  
by "print a" and "print a,". 
 
This is minor but might confuse unnecessarily  beginners.
