I have never heard of it, maybe
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/sagetex/
by Dan Drake could/should be used here. I'm BCCing him :-)

Strictly speaking all sage.interfaces are such examples. A quite short one is
gfan.py. However, I strongly suggest someone looks through whatever example
we choose and makes it very very nice. I learned the hard way that examples
tend to be templated/copied and every nastiness in those will be copied over.
Even comments like: "This is a short-cut, the proper way can be seen in" are
often futile.
Cheers,
