Typos and Errors in examples folder

[akelshareif]

Within the examples folder, long_url_example.py file retrieves a shortened URL instead with qc.get_short_url(). Furthermore, the commented-out short URL returns an error page which states Chart not found.

Hi @akelshareif, the long_url_example is named as such because the URL shortener takes a long URL and turns it into a short one. I agree it would be more aptly named short_url_example.

The commented-out short URL is an example output but is not meant to persist forever. QuickChart short URLs expire after 3-6 months, which is why it returns Chart not found.

Thank you for the clarification regarding the short URL expiration @typpo. As a suggestion, maybe adding a comment within the long_url_example file indicating that the short URL displayed is an example and has expired could clarify this for future readers of the file. I also agree that the long_url_example would be more aptly named short_url_example. Thank you for your time and speedy response. The issue will now be closed.

Thanks! I've made both suggested changes.
