About the sequence of material in this section of the Tutorial:
I think a person new to Python will first need to use modules from the standard library before starting to write modules on his/her own.
So I think the subsection "Standard Modules" should be moved way up in the text and should be inserted between the introductionary paragraph telling people what modules are and just before the explanation of the more esoteric thing of what the variable __name__ is. A beginner will make use of __name__ only in the pattern if __name__ == "__main__": and seldom anywhere else.
Good point. I'll do something about that later, if nobody beats me to it.
