Python Statistics.... Reinventing the wheel

So I was working on using python to do my stats homework... I know I should just spend the time doing the homework but. OCD! __must___write___prog__to___do___menial___tasks___

>>> def doHomework(mylist):
>>> '''realize this a fictional function'''
>>> newlist = fixList(mylist)
>>> caffinate = getCoffee(cup, nocoffee=False)
>>> calc = getCalc(location, readman=False)
>>> understand = groK(data)
>>> myrange = findRange(data)
>>> classwidth = float(myrange)/float(classes)+.5
>>> classwidth = round(classwidth)
>>> stddev = math.sqrt(variance)
>>> coeffvar = stddev/mean
>>> if will2do < willNot2Do:
>>> f = open('homework','w')
>>> f.write(answers)
>>> f.close()
>>> return newlist
+.5 thanks dave
