There are quite a few things that are not being tested right now, and
they are failing (see previous email).

I will have a look at making the notebooks testable.

In any case, I think the tutorial format needs a revamp for modern
times (interestingly I believe it is mostly adding code snippets and,
above all, REMOVING text).
