Almost certainly nobody here has working code that they're willing to
simply give you. Is your final project expected to be more than a
week's work? If so, I think you're a bit stuck - at least as regards
the deadline. But if you have a good idea of how to write code (in
some other language than Python), and if you have a thorough set of
notes of what you're trying to accomplish (in pseudo-code, or at least
your native language - for me that would be English), then you might
be able to translate it all into working Python code fairly
efficiently.

A week is, I'm afraid, not very long for a large project. But with a
good language, you can do an amazing amount of work in a short time;
and Python is a very good language. I recently knocked together most
of a game engine inside 24 hours (not in Python but in a similar
language); you might well be able to go from nil to running before
your time is up. But it's going to take a lot of work, and you're
going to need to start by getting broad familiarity with Python. So
start here:
