[Tutor] Processor Simulator

[Timothy M. Brauch]

I have a project for my comp-sci class.  I have to design a simulator
for a processor, and I've decided to use Python.  So, my question is,
does anyone have any suggestions as to how to go about doing this? 
Also, I have to write simple files and load them into my simulator.

My initial thoughts are to create a class with a bunch of function
definitions for different processes.  Such as add() and sub() and mul(),
etc.

I also have to have a display window showing register enteries, which
that I think I can do fairly easily.  I was thinking of using the latest
VPython which has a text function (I am doing this mostly because I have
no experience with TK, otherwise I would use it, but right now I don't
have the time to learn it).

As for the files, I would use something like readlines and string.split
to break up my commands kept in the external file.  I think I can handle
that as well.

If anyone has any suggestions or can offer any help, let me know.  I
feel like this might be one of the biggest projects I have undertaken so
far.
