Its worth spending a bit of time describing how to use IDLE. To most, this may not be immediately obvious.

Launch IDLE shell window

To start, we need to open the python shell window. This is the first window you see when you launch the IDLE application. If you haven’t already, drag the IDLE icon from your Launchpad down into the dock. This will ensure it is ever present whenever you wish to launch.

General Info Text for Windows 10 and other Win OS: On most PCs, you can resume working by pressing your computer's Power Button. However, not all computers are the same. You might be able to wake your computer by pressing any key on the keyboard, clicking a mouse button, or opening the lid on a laptop.

Mac Pro systems configured with a Fibre Channel card or OS X Server do not meet ENERGY STAR requirements. Mac Pro achieved a Gold rating from EPEAT in the U.S. PCI Express slots are not compatible with PCI or PCI-X expansion cards. 1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes; actual formatted capacity less. The easiest way to do that is to install one of the binary installers for OS X from the Python Download page. Installers are available for the latest Python 3 and Python 2 releases that will work on all Macs that run Mac OS X 10.5 and later. Python releases include IDLE, Python's built-in interactive development environment. If you download. Operating System Mac & Windows Mac & Windows. 11.42 x 3.94 x 1.18 inches. Bluetooth lags when keyboard left idle for a bit. But responsive after a few key. Issue the command idle3 & to launch IDLE. Note the trailing ampersand. The trailing ampersand tells the computer to run the idle3 program in the background, thereby leaving your Terminal application free to handle additional commands while IDLE is running. In IDLE, type the four-line Python program helloworld.py exactly as it appears below. Use the arrow keys, mouse, or touchpad to move within the.

Open editor window

From the shell window, you need to open an editor window. The editor window is where we will write python code. From the IDLE menu bar (click on the shell window to ensure the menu bar is IDLE specific) click File, New File. This will open a new window called “Untitled”

Save File

Its probably a good idea to save the editor window file at this point. This will ensure your code can be saved as you work on it, and it can be retrieved at a later point. From the menu bar, click File, Save As. Each Python file name will have a .py extension. This is provided by default when you name your file.

Write some code

I wanted to prove that my set up worked so I entered some code in the editor window. I wrote a hello world program using the code below. Click File, Save on the IDLE menu when this code has been written in the editor window.

Run program

Executing the code returns (prints) the string values (within quotation marks) stored inside brackets to the python shell window. On the IDLE menu bar click Run, Run Module. This returns the output shown below to the shell window.

Celebrate

Code written and successfully returned to the shell window! To follow on from my previous post, rubber has in fact hit the road. I now have a set up that works and the tools that I need to start learning Python.
