My recommendation: don't hesitate to take the time to read the Python manual. 2) Double click on saved Python script (hope you are able to save a file? Haven't you detected that you can edit and run a file in IDLE?) 3) Plain text editor or IDLE are good. For more see Python website - there are plenty options to choose from. 4) using 'import' (see recommendation in 1))
