Note: you *may* import the math module, for sqrt, but remember pow is in __builtins__ so (1 + pow(5, 0.5))/2 will work. I liked your smooth transition from shell mode to Run in module mode while keeping the shell open in __main__. There's no restart in this picture, we you're free to keep treating the module almost like a generator in that it yields control back to the shell (after printing). >From there it's a quick jump to explaining how a module might run top level (as __main__), with no interactive session for a launch pad. Put everything you'll need in the suitcase. Just an empty hotel room (Python interpreter + we hope Standard Library) on the other end.
