One thing I chose as a starting to learn python exercise was random
number generation.

I wrote a command line dice roller, a Gui dice roller, and a module that
handles some fairly complex rolling. I ran it through py2exe and found a
free installer that works well but have not put the stand alone windows
one on the page yet.

Can't say it's the cleanest code on the planet - but I was quite new
then (still am fairly new). Found it a great learning experience.
