I'm preparing for a math competition where I'm allowed to bring books, calculators, and computers, but I need to ensure that whatever I use can't connect to the internet, even if I turn off WiFi. My laptop isn't an option since it's technically capable of connecting to WiFi. I need something that can run Python for coding during the competition, but I want to clarify that it should have absolutely no internet capabilities. Any suggestions?

I think you might face some challenges finding a product that meets those strict WiFi requirements. One option could be to physically remove the WiFi card from your laptop, if you're comfortable doing that.
You might want to check your laptop's BIOS settings. You can often disable the WiFi there, which would effectively keep your device from connecting to the internet while you're using it.
If you're considering older hardware, you could easily find an old laptop that has a removable WiFi card. If you go that route, make sure to double-check the specs!
