How to Run a File in Python – What's the Best Way to Execute a Script? or Struggling with How to Run

For a noob-friendly approach to how to run a file in python, I’d recommend Thonny. It’s a super simple IDE made for beginners.

Just install it, open your `.py` file, and hit F5. No terminal commands, no PATH issues.

If you wanna stick to terminal, though, check if Python is installed correctly by typing `python --version`. If it doesn’t show, reinstall Python and tick "Add to PATH" during setup.
