What makes you think that the first useful and meaningful widget is the same thing for everyone ? The first thing I built as a Python beginner was a high-volume fault-tolerant distributed image production system for heterogenous environments. The most recent thing I built is a small script that takes an infogami comment and reposts it as an article.

I love to do a lot of things, read, hang out, skate, which are a few amongst other things. I guess my ideas will have to come from real-life experiences, I'm going to chill out for 2 days this week and just think of various things which I want or need, but have not found anything which fulfills that. I'm going to jot everything down, and try to think about way to implement them programmatically. We'll see how it works out. -- A wise man knows he knows nothing. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: python application ideas.
Thats the best way to go about it. Python I find is fun because you can just play with the interpreter throwing commands at it and really just working with syntax and usually POC ideas. The most useful ideas usually just come to you. I recieved a pretty barebones MP3 player from my sister for my birthday. I didnt have anything on the lines of file management or playlist management software whatsoever, so I decided to write some custom software (in Tkinter btw) to quickly and efficiently move around songs and playlists with it's basic removable drive format. Its all in what you need, and what you need a 'solution' for. Try not to think of 'ideas' per se, try to think of problems that need solutions. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I love to do a lot of things, read, hang out, skate, which are a few amongst other things From the skating: OK, say you have a 3-d surface, what is the path a ball bearing with a particular momentum takes over time. Can you display that: the 3-D surface, the position as an animation? Sure you can. VPython gives you all the display capabilities you need. Start with 2-D and an straight line. Then move either to a more complex curve or 3-D next. The reason for using VPython is to get 3-D solved for you so you can work on the position and momentum updates. It even will do anaglyph (colored glasses) and cross-eyed 3-D rendering, though the default is to simply give you a 2-D window into the 3-D world. If you do this, you might play with designing a virtual skate park. --Scott David Daniels [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
