Recently I received a Python file written by a friend of mine while he was in first year university. It contained a class "Book" and a class "Person". He used these classes to record and store information of people in a book, but the most interesting part about it was that all of it was done in a pop-up window GUI, complete with buttons and text fields.
Although learning GUI is not in the course outline, curiosity overwhelmed me and I decided to break down his code and try to understand how it was done. On that note I've set up a side goal for myself that will run parallel to the course and that is to program a calculator by the end of the course using what I learn in CSC148 and what I learn from my friend's code.
It would be great to see that calculator posted on your blog! Good goal.
