Visual Python is a module that extends Python's power to work with OpenGL
3d graphics.  It allows the programmer to write programs that play around
with graphics without having to worry about issues like threads, or event
loops.  I've also heard that it also handles a lot of physics and vector
calculations, so that someone can do experiments with moving bodies with
ease.
