Which command line to run python commands?

[AustinB]

    I've tried both the Python Command line and Command prompt. Neither of them have worked. I'm trying to follow the Django Tutorial but cant issue any commands which I'm going to assume is going to be an issue as there is a couple on the first tutorial. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/intro/tutorial01/

 

Thanks.

I use Windows Powershell to run Python. I'm not sure if it does the same thing as what you're looking for.

 

The below code will set up python in Powershell. Replace "Python27" with whatever python version you have / wherever you installed Python to.

[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable(”Path”, ”$env:Path;C:\Python27”, ”User”) 

You'll need to know basic terminal commands to navigate to where your code is though.

 

This is how "Learn Python the Hard Way" by Zed Shaw tells you to run python. I started learning python thanks to that book.

Add the python interpreter(the root folder of python.exe) to the windows path environment variables.
