[You should mention versions when posting. Above is for 2.7]
The example is consistent as it is. A trailing comma would suppress the 
newline after each output, resulting in a single line of output.
1 1 2 3 5 8
While you could argue that the combined change would be better, the 
author of the example did not think so. This introductory chapter only 
uses the simplest form of the print statement.
