Underwhelming Python labs (compsci)

Today I had a 4-hour lab period in which I was expected to write a program that takes an image and makes it grayscale. We work in a watered-down Python environment running in Java (WHY?!).

Obviously it took about 5 minutes to boot the computer, setup the environment and write a paragraph, then submit it:

Code:
def grayScale(redWeight,greenWeight,blueWeight):

The Drawing Board

Some things I'd like to make at some point:

1. Two-stage expendable bimodal-NTR interplanetary engine, similar in concept to what's seen here: http://projectrho.com/rocket/images/...ission--02.jpg

Obstacles: No modeling skills. If anyone would like to make this model, holler, though I haven't much free time lately.

2. DLL modules...
