1. Description of the Feature Request:
I think the explanation and linked resources for stub and mock in Exercise 13_ input_output are a little too technical and non-intuitive for the uninitiated beginner. It was difficult for me to understand why I might even need stub and mock and where they should be used when I first took the exercise.
For a simpler explanation -- both in words and in code, I found a resource online The ‘no problemo’ basic guide to doubles and stubs in RSpec that illustrated the concept of mock in a manner that's much more intuitive (and fun). I suggest adding it to the list of stub/mock resources in the exercise.
