Oh, okay. Producing graphs can't really be done with just the standard library, so I withdraw my earlier recommendation to minimize dependencies. It means you're going to need to spend a bit of your time making sure they can pip-install things, but on the upside, you're going to have way more "wow" factor from a few simple lines of pyplot code that pop up a pretty little graph.
