 Im on windows 8 and i need to open a file called string1.py that is on my 
desktop, in both the interpreter and notepad++, so that i can work on it. I 
already have it open in notepad, but for the life of me cannot figure out how 
to open it in the interpreter. Invalid syntax is the error message when i type 
in""" python string1.py""""" into the interpreter! maybe a dumb question but i 
would appreciate the help for sure. thanks :)

I'm assuming you're asking how to *run* your string1.py script.
 First you need a shell prompt.  For
Windows,  that's cmd.exe, which you usually get by opening a DOS box.

Then at the cmd prompt, you type
    python string1.py

That will start the interpreter,  import the script,  run the
 script,  and exit the interpreter.
