[issue13443] wrong links and examples in the functional HOWTO

[Eli Bendersky]

Andrew, thanks, but I still think it's a bigger problem that the page discusses a module which is not available on Python 3.x - this means that a user following the page can't just type in the code and make it run.

The links can be fixed and kept there, as Éric suggests, perhaps with a disclaimer, but code on the page itself should be valid - this is part of our official documentation, after all.
