The python shell is good for experimenting and testing some things out, but
you are right it isn't for writing programs you actually re-use and run
later. You can use any text editor you want, Visual Studio Code and Sublime
Text are both popular, but anything will do at all. There is also a simple
editor with integration for running Python included in the Python Windows
installer, called IDLE. You should be able to find that in your start menu.

Hi ma’am/sir,
I’ve started using python Shell 3.6.8-32 bit executable installer on
windows OS. But there is no option to save or open a new file. This gives
an output after every line. But, I want to work on longer codes to execute
programs.
Am I using the right interface? Please help.
An interactive shell is for experimentation a statement at a time.
You need an editor for longer code. IDLE has both. You can save its
Shell session to a file for later review or extraction of code that worked.
Here is a screenshot…
