Hello
We have been asked to download python so our daughter can complete her homework, only once we have down
loaded it keeps going to "set up" and even after completing "modify" or
"repair" it goes back to set up.
https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-382/ -this is what we have
downloaded.
Any advice?
Sorry, no advice, we'd need more information. Main questions:
You talk only about downloading - and the link you gave leads to the
download page as a whole, so we can't guess the OS you - or your
daughter - use.
One guess, because that's quite a frequent problem, at least on Windows:
did you perhaps try to start the installer a second time instead of
Python itself? The symptoms you describe would fit this case.
Some possibly helpful links:
https://docs.python.org/3/faq/windows.html
That's still supposing your daughter uses Windows. If yes, then the
first entry might be enough to get her started.
https://docs.python.org/3/using/index.html
More about installing and using Python on Linux, Windows and Mac. If
it's Windows then perhaps the Microsoft Store package might be easier to
use? I don't know it myself, but the description looks promising.
