Re: [docs] 9. Classes << The Python Tutorial

Suddenly, some "I" is writing the tutorial. But, "we" don't care. That's only somewhat excusable in texts or papers written by one individual. Certainly, it wouldn't be excusable in documentation at the gateway of a massive community. And other things like statements "A *namespace* is a mapping from names to objects" should be looked into as well in a proofing. Most people learning to program for the first time may come to a language like Python, and they wouldn't have learned formal definitions of mathematical functions to make sense of such phrasings. A writer signaling their "higher knowledge" to a fraction of the audience doesn't serve pedagogical purposes.
