highlight_file will do what you want. Create a page with your tutorial and then whenever you have source code, create a separate file for the source code. Use that function to put the source code in your tutorial and have a link to see the file run.

If you want this all in the same file then where you want to have the code displayed you'll have to write out the code so it can be displayed. Where you want the results to be displayed, then you write the code so that it is executable and it outputs the results.
