This is an actual question. I have have a prototype for a python related website. Right now I am just running it off old PC (https://66.32.187.134). Where could I host this site & and do you think this site would be helpful to the advancement of Python programming knowledge? Thanks. Father Jack
I'm a total Python newbie. How do I get Python started on a Palm handheld ( https://c2.com/cgi/wiki?PalmPython ) ?
Or should I focus on learning Python on a desktop PC first ? -- DavidCary
I would recommend learning Python on a normal desktop system, with a recent version, a full suite of libraries, and [https://ipython.scipy.org/ IPython] (Interactive Python) installed. After you've learned the basics then you can probably adapt more readily to the limitations of the Palm Pilot interface, implementation, version (older), and libraries (reduced subset). ["JimD"]

- How do you save python code and use it for anything? --elpenmaster
Save it as "scriptName.py" and then execute it with the Python interpreter. As for choosing a purpose for the code, that's entirely up to you. &["PeytonMcCullough"]
