Hi Hélène, I'd like to point you to a suite of sample scripts that use Python's turtle module. You can find it here:
http://python-turtle-demo.googlecode.com It contains a demo-viewer turtleDemo.py that lets you inspect the source code of the example scripts and execute them. So you get an overview about what is offered very easily and quickly. Moreover there are a couple of scripts that are designed to run standalone, among them a towers of hanoi animation, a gravitational system simulation and the trigeo.py script mentioned by Kirby in a previous posting.

Hello, As some of you know, I teach high school classes in Seattle. Students have been loving Python so far! They've been able to dive right in and get some interesting results. I was wondering whether any of you had suggestions for Python programs to look at, dissect, extend and emulate. I'm looking for something reasonably small like a simple music player, some kind of calculator app, a collection manager or something like that. I'd rather it be an existing open source project someone started out of necessity (rather than me creating something contrived for the exercise). I've poked around a bit but haven't found anything I thought would be perfect either because of scale (I'd rather keep it to a handful of files), complexity or just plain code ugliness. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
