Editing Installing Python (section)

=== Creating a Python file ===
Now we need to create a Python file.

There are a few ways to do this, such as:

* Using a text editor
* Using the command line

==== Text editor ====
To create a new Python file, open a text editor, such as VS Code, and save the file.

Save the file with the ''''.py'''<nowiki/>' extension.

For example, the file could be called ''''hello.py'''<nowiki/>'.

Save this file in your ''''learnpython'''<nowiki/>' directory.

==== Command line ====
You can also use the command line to create a Python file.

If you are not still in your project folder, navigate to it using the ''''cd'''<nowiki/>' command.

Then type the following:
 . > hello.py
Replacing ''hello'' with the name of your file you want to create.
