I was curious, and looked up the contents of the module, and dscovered that
it had attributes c, d, i, and s. I was wondering if anyone had any clue
what these attributes were supposed to mean.

Mostly they are just variables used to construct the message. The values are
the fibnal values of loops etc.

I think (this.s) is the zen of python in some foreign language (dutch maybe?),

No, its not Dutch, its a caesar encrypted version of the zen and the variable
d holds the translation table.

significance of the others are. Just wondering if anyone knew, (or if they
mean anything at all).

Just look at the source of the module in this.py, its in the Libs folder

Also, I was wondering, when a user first imports this, how does the module
print the zen of python? I can't figure out how it does it.

It builds the table then it applies it to the encrypted string.

HTH,
