Slightly hijacking this thread a bit, specifically Alan's reply, if anyone is averse to installing multiple versions of Python on their computers, you can always access a Python interpreter from a browser window.
Here are a collection I've put together. Most are Python 2, but the top pair also support Python 3: - http://ideone.com (2.x & 3.x) - http://colabv6.dan.co.jp/lleval.html (2.x & 3.x) - http://doc.pyschools.com/console - http://repl.it/languages/Python - http://skulpt.org (pure JS implementation; allows turtle) - http://pythonwebconsole.thomnichols.org - http://shell.appspot.com (Google App Engine + libraries) - http://codepad.org - http://lotrepls.appspot.com - http://datamech.com/devan/trypython/trypython.py Cheers, --Wesley On Wed, Nov 12, 2014 at 9:11 AM, Alan Gauld <alan.ga...@btinternet.com> wrote: > On 12/11/14 11:08, Vaibhav Banait wrote: > >> Hi >> I am new to python.
