Chapter 1: Introduction to Python
1.4 Installing Python
To get started with Python programming, you need to install Python and set up a development environment using an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or a code editor. In this section, we will guide you through the process of installing Python and setting up popular IDEs like PyCharm, Visual Studio Code (VSCode), and Jupyter Notebook.
1.4.1 Installing Python
Step 1: Go to www.python.org
Step 2: Select ‘Downloads’ from the toolbar
Step 3: Click on ‘Download Python 3.8.1’ or the latest version available
