Good day

I am a new user to Python and have downloaded Idle (Python version:
3.4.3; Tk Version: 8.5.9; IDLE version: 3.4.3).

If on Mac OSX, I recommend upgrading tk

"Python for kids" as a starter and have noticed that when I try to
use the underscore (_) in the Python shell the underscore is not
visible. Is there any way to rectify this?

I have copied the two lines of code from the Python shell window
below and the underscore is definitely there - just not visible!

number_of_coins=200 print(number_of_coins)

Quite visible to me. What happens when you run the interactive interpreter directly? What happens is you click Options / Configure IDLE / Font tab, and change the font?
