code snippet to create and broadcast transaction

[jonald_fyookball]

is there a minimal example of how to send a transaction, perhaps in python?

Assume I have an address, public and private key, and an amount.
How do I create a signed transaction and broadcast?

I'm interested in a Python solution too!
