CelebrateĬode written and successfully returned to the shell window! To follow on from my previous post, rubber has in fact hit the road. This returns the output shown below to the shell window. On the IDLE menu bar click Run, Run Module. print ('Hello World') Run programĮxecuting the code returns (prints) the string values (within quotation marks) stored inside brackets to the python shell window. Click File, Save on the IDLE menu when this code has been written in the editor window. I wrote a hello world program using the code below.

I wanted to prove that my set up worked so I entered some code in the editor window. This is provided by default when you name your file. This will ensure your code can be saved as you work on it, and it can be retrieved at a later point. Its probably a good idea to save the editor window file at this point. This will open a new window called “Untitled” From back to front we have the IDLE menu bar, Python shell window and the editor window Save File From the IDLE menu bar (click on the shell window to ensure the menu bar is IDLE specific) click File, New File. The editor window is where we will write python code. Open editor windowįrom the shell window, you need to open an editor window. This will ensure it is ever present whenever you wish to launch. If you haven’t already, drag the IDLE icon from your Launchpad down into the dock. This is the first window you see when you launch the IDLE application. To start, we need to open the python shell window. To most, this may not be immediately obvious. Its worth spending a bit of time describing how to use IDLE. – This is a batch compiler interactive programs are not supported.A tribute to Eric Idle. – Some file system, network and graphics functions may be limited – Internet connection is required for compilation – Open, save, import and share Python files. – Advanced source code editor with syntax highlighting, code completion and line numbers Its language constructs and object-oriented approach aim to help programmers write clear, logical code for small and large-scale projects.

Created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991, Python’s design philosophy emphasizes code readability with its notable use of significant whitespace.
