Python IDLE/VS Code
To write and run Python programs, you need a Python editor or IDE (Integrated Development Environment). Two commonly used tools for this are:
-
Python IDLE – Comes built-in with Python.
-
Visual Studio Code (VS Code) – A powerful and customizable editor from Microsoft.
Let’s explore both and understand how to set them up.
🐍 Python IDLE
What is IDLE?
IDLE (Integrated Development and Learning Environment) is the default editor that comes with Python installation.
How to Open IDLE:
-
Install Python from python.org
-
Open IDLE:
-
On Windows: Search for "IDLE"
-
On macOS/Linux: Run
idlein terminal
-
Features of IDLE:
-
Comes with a Python shell (interactive interpreter)
-
File editor with syntax highlighting
-
Easy to test and run code quickly
-
Good for beginners
Running a Python Script in IDLE:
-
Open IDLE
-
Click File > New File
-
Write your code, e.g.:
print("Hello from IDLE!") -
Save the file (e.g.,
hello.py) -
Press F5 or go to Run > Run Module
🧰 Visual Studio Code (VS Code)
What is VS Code?
VS Code is a lightweight and extensible code editor developed by Microsoft. It supports Python through an extension.
Steps to Setup VS Code for Python:
-
Download and install VS Code
-
Open VS Code and go to Extensions (
Ctrl+Shift+X) -
Search and install "Python" extension by Microsoft
-
Install Python from python.org
-
Create a new
.pyfile and start writing code:print("Hello from VS Code!")
Running Python in VS Code:
-
Open a terminal in VS Code: `Ctrl+```
-
Run the script:
python filename.py
VS Code Features:
-
Syntax highlighting
-
IntelliSense (smart code suggestions)
-
Debugging support
-
Git integration
-
Works with many languages
✅ Summary Table
| Feature | IDLE | VS Code |
|---|---|---|
| Built-in with Python | ✅ Yes | ❌ No (needs install) |
| Beginner Friendly | ✅ Very Easy | ⚠️ Slight learning curve |
| Extensions/Add-ons | ❌ No | ✅ Yes (many) |
| Debugging Tools | Basic | Advanced |
| Recommended For | Beginners | Intermediate & Advanced |
