If you can think of 1 typical common case
I'll reward you with praise! :)

By the way, by common and typical I mean
use-cases that you'd typically find in every
day applications and user tools, software,
games, etc.

In case anyone is not aware, Python is
also used for heavy scientific computational
problems, games such as Civilisation and
others, and I believe (correct me if I"m wrong)
it's also used by NASA.
