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.

All my apologies: I didn't check my code correctly:
as the algorithm is initializing a with 0 instead of 1, the output is
correct.
