python getting started notes

check your version of python

Python

python --version

if this does not work try 

Python

python3 --version

this should show something like:

Python 3.8.5

you can run a python script with

Python

python3 myscript.py

you cant just make it +x and run it, there is prob a setting for that

adding your 1st py script

BASH

nano hello.py

then add a print command

Nano

print("Hello World")

Press CTRL+X and then Y to save the file

then run it to test

BASH

python3 hello.py

if all is good it should print...

Hello World
