[Idle-dev] Running beginner Pythons

[Bruce Sherwood]

For what it's worth: Science and engineering students in the college intro
physics course who use Python (VPython) to model physical systems typically
have no prior programming experience, so it is necessary in a crowded
physics curriculum to teach them only a very small minimalist subset of
Python programming concepts and forms. It is possible to go a very long
ways with "while" being the only iteration mechanism.
