Batching minor fixes and typo corrections into one PR (nnja#96)

* Update 00-who.md

* add correction to minor typos

* Update workshop website link in readme body

* Typo correction

* Update 20-adding-removing-finding.md

I think that you wanted to state that one can call help on the variable that's already a list, instead of the type itself (?)

* Typos in 04-the-repl-in-vscode.md

Changed "type" to "directory" (but could possibly also just be "dir" here) and add the word "pass" to a sentence under the help() section.

* Typos in Best Practices - 02-brief-history.md

Just fixing a few small typos.

* Typos in  020-basic-data-types / 00-variables.md

Just a few minor typos

* Update 50-sets.md

* Update 65-mutability.md

values in a python should be immutable

* Update 60-dictionaries.md

Remove unnecessary quotation mark

* Fix typo.

reccomended -> recommended

* Update 00-variables.md

* Fix typo

^ character is called caret.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caret

* Fixed Grammatical Error

* fix mistype

 This debate is now over. Python 2 will reach end-of-life in 2020, meaning that important updates - including security updates - will stop being released. That's why this course focuses on *Python3 only*.
