boardbreaker Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Just run the interpreter and learn the syntax and basic programming concepts...Tutorial: http://www.sthurlow.com/python/lesson01/.

Jonnycake Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 It's because the directory that the python application is installed in isn't in your PATH variable. Just cd to the directory that you installed it in and then type python. Alternatively, you can add that to the PATH variable and execute it with just typing python.

DingleBerries Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 ls has a great link, and he is not doubt the one that made me become interested in this language. Even though its just scripting I have to admit... Im liking it more than C atm :(. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratmandall Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Even though its just scripting Python isn't "just scripting". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italiano40 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Python isn't "just scripting". python isn't just scripting but the GUI programing part is a very had part of the language so it is best used by scripters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
