"These are not the scripts you are looking for" More seriously, you want to configure your shell. See the linux documentation project, beginner's guide to bash, chapter 3 in particular: http://tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/index.html Until you login, your shell doesn't even exists, so

Re: [Tutor] Coming from R, what's a good IDE editor? I've tried PyCharm and Spyder

PyCharm has support for cell based notebooks, interactive python console etc. You can set up the layout so it mirrors Rstudio. Spyder should have installed correctly. How did you install? Having said that, you should also look into JupyterLab: https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab, YHat's

Re: [Tutor] To FORMAT or not to

The answer is neither. The second shows the intent in part but doesn't quite get it right. The intent is to have a string template and insert values in that template: print("You've visited {} & {}.".format(island, new) This is totally clear what is going to happen. I'm not relying on the
