Add more files to the tutorial

[whiteknight]

examples/tutorial/ contains some nice information but also has a lot of holes where coverage is missing. We need people to add more small turorial examples (With adequate POD documentation of them) on the following subjects:

1) Basic PIR syntax 2) Loops and common control structures 3) Objects and classes 4) Multimethods 5) Various PMC classes

This is only a partial list of things that are needed. There are 34 tutorial files in this directory now, if we could increase that number to 50 (of decent quality) this ticket can probably be reevaluated and resolved.

This ticket falls into the category of "Worthy Idea, But Overly Broad. Who's Going to Do Anything About It."

So, not surprisingly, it hasn't been touched in 12 months.

I don't think we should keep it open. If someone wants to file >=1 tickets on specific tutorials needed, I'd be okay with that.

Comments? Better ideas?

Thank you very much.
