    To start coding in Python, you need to have Python installed on your system. You can check if Python is installed by running the following command in your terminal or command prompt:

    python --version
    Copied!

    If Python is not installed, you can download it from the official Python website.

    Writing Your First Python Program

    • Open a Text Editor: You can use any text editor like Notepad, Sublime Text, or an IDE like PyCharm.

    • Write Your Code: Type the following code to print "Hello, World!".

    print("Hello, World!")
    Copied!

    • Save the File: Save the file with a .py extension, for example, helloworld.py.

    Running Your Python Program

    • Open Terminal/Command Prompt: Navigate to the directory where you saved your Python file.

    • Run the Program: Execute the following command:

    python helloworld.py
    Copied!

    Important Considerations

    • Python Version: Ensure you are using the correct version of Python. You can check this by running python --version.

    • Text Editor/IDE: Choose a text editor or IDE that supports Python syntax highlighting and other features to make coding easier.
