The source code for many of the standard library modules is available
to you in the installation itself. There are also some sample apps such
as the regex tester.
Also if you install Django you have another bunch of files to look at.
And search source forge for python projects, lots of examples.
Finally look at the ActiveState web site for Python recipes.
Lots of good ideas there.
Of course what constitutes good code is somewhat subjective but
the library and recipes are virtually all pretty good code IMHO.
