Which OS are you using? That will help us find/install IDLE. However, you don't need IDLE to work with Python, just a text editor. If I assume you are using Windows then start notepad and type the 2 lines print("Hello world") input("hit return to exit...") Then save the file as hello.py You should now be able to run that file by double clicking it in your file manager. Alternatively, start a CMD session (Windows+R type cmd, hit OK) and at the prompt type python \the\folder\where\you\saved\the\file\hello.py If you have problems with any of that let us know. copy any error messages you get into your mail message. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
