f1ad207f2a Made several grammatical corrections based on comments from Daniel 
Barcla <danielb@digitalfocus.com>.

Also added example of what happens when a parameter is set both
positionally and by a keyword (one of Daniels suggestions related to
that paragraph).

bdadf0f7f3 Explain comments at the start of chapter 3. This is needed since they 
appear in the examples without any further explanation, and the
tutorial doesn't have this information explicit anywhere else.

aee5e26f4b Add warning that mutable argument defaults are evaluated only once; 
with examples and workaround.  This keeps coming up, and I believe
that this section in the tutorial may have been (in part) the source
of the confusion.  While it didn't show examples with [] for a default,
it also didn't emphasize enough why that would be a bad idea, and
while it did say that defaults are evaluated at the point of function
definition, the example was not relevant for this issue.
