A few cool things I've learned about Python:

• "pylint somefile.py" - Great way to score your code against PEP8 style guide(pylint.org)
• "pydoc -w yourmodule" - Generates HTML formatting for your module from your docstrings
• Pillow is the current fork of module PIL(Python Imaging Library) which is good for image manipulation and can be used in combination with tkinter(Python 3) to rapidly prototype displays/GUIs
