Python Lesson 1: Setting up Python

You can get started with Python 3 by downloading it from this link: https://www.python.org/downloads/

You'll also want to download a code editor. I use Visual Studio Code, but there are other options out there like PyCharm, Sublime text, and Atom. If you want to try Visual Studio Code, you can download that here: https://code.visualstudio.com/download

Once you have those two programs installed, you're pretty much all set- just make sure that you also install the Python extension in Visual Studio Code so that you can create Python files. I'll also add that if you want to take digital notes, I'd recommend either Obsidian or Jupyter

To Do:

• Install Python 3
• Install Visual Studio Code (or other code editor)

In the next lesson, we'll tackle some of the basic data types in Python.
