To be able to code a Python language on your laptop, you need to have the Python system installed on your machine, which could be Windows or a MacBook. I will be guiding you on a very easy step-by-step process on how to download and install Python on your Windows.
Step 1: Go to your preferred search engine and search for "Python Download". Once the search results are out, click on the first result, and when the page opens, you will see different versions of Python available for download. It is however important that you download the latest version to have a smooth and updated user experience with the version of Python you are working with.
Step 2: Once you have downloaded the application, you should go to your laptop's files and click on downloads. You should see the Python application you have just downloaded there. Click on it and run it.
Step 3: At the point of installing it, you will see a set-up page appear. Follow the instructions and make sure to tick the box that states " add Python to path". Failure to do this will result in problems when you start using the Python.
Step 4: Click "Install Now" to start the installation after checking the "add Python to path" box. While Python is installed on your system, this phase may take a while.
Step 5: After the installation is finished, open a terminal or command prompt and type "python --version" or "python -V" to confirm it. This should show the version of Python that is installed, indicating that the installation was successful.
Step 6: Yay! Now that Python is installed on your PC. You can begin utilizing it by opening your preferred code editor or integrated development environment (IDE) and exploring the fascinating realm of Python programming. Have fun coding!
