python and filter design: calculating "s" optimal transform

[robert somerville]

Hi;
this is an airy question.

does anybody have some code or ideas on how to calculate the optimal "S"
transform of user specified order (wanting the coefficients)  for a
published filter response curve, ie.

f(s) = 1.0/(a1*S^2 + a2*S + a3)
