before Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I know quite a few languages (but I can't do JAVA for some reason!), so I set a goal to write some scripts, but since I want to do it right I made a path Turing > Basic > Python > C(#/++) (so I can get used to machine language) > Java I'm working on Python, but is there some text editor for it? It's annoying (I'm just coding to the prompt) how when I make a mistake I have to recode everything.. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Botre Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 An IDE isn't a text editor and vice versa. https://wiki.python.org/moin/IntegratedDevelopmentEnvironments Gl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swizzbeat Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Why would you ever want a text editor over an IDE? Also, the C(whatever) languages won't get you used to machine level....learn assembly for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A text editor is essentially notepad with color coded text based on the file type you are working with. A few of them also include some sort of basic intellisense. An IDE on the other hand is like an AIO programming environment where you have (more than often) language compilers, intellisense, plugins, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Notepad++ (WIll handle all your languages) Sublime is gorgeous for Python Also Adobe Edge Code is good too for most languages Visual Studio 2013 is great for the C languages Eclipse is good for Java.

Unicorns Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) I used Python from their website. The link is https://www.python.org/download/. Is that what you are looking for? When you open IDLE, it will open the Python Shell and you can open a new window where you can write your program, save it, and run it as many times as you want.
