-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
So far, the word "coercion" has only been used twice in the tutorial -
without explanation or reference. I believe coercion is far too important
to not cover it in the tutorial, and moreover some pitfalls may be
confusing for mathematicians, while programmers might confuse it with
implicit type conversion.
My patch adds such section.
