Please briefly summarise the changes made in the pull request, and the reason(s) for making these changes.
I have added reference links to Wikipedia for the data types mentioned in the intro episode. My co-workers and I operate self-organized workshops and have had learners express that they didn't understand one or more of these (usually floating-point numbers). While we don't want to dig into that topic too much here, having these links on hand to provide as a reference seems useful.
If any relevant discussions have taken place elsewhere, please provide links to these.
