hi! i'm running computationally-intensive python programs for a student project, and i have a couple of questions.

1) how can i suspend program execution for brief periods either in python or through IDLE;

and 2) is there a way to save state data so that if i have to quit running a program in a student computer lab, i can write the state of the program and all intermediate data to -- say -- a usb drive, then read in the state data later so the program can pick up where it left off?

thanks,
james
