Our recommendation
On Windows, we suggest the Notepad++ text editor. It is actually unrelated to the Windows default program called Notepad.
To install it:
- Go to http://notepad-plus-plus.org/release/5.9
- Click on Notepad++ v5.9 Installer to download the installer.
- Run the installer, and follow the process to the end.
To run it:
- Open it like you would any other Windows program: From the programs list in the start menu.
Success!
Now you have an editor that you can use to open any text file, including Python programs.
If you have different editor for text, check with an instructor before moving on to make sure it will work for the weekend.
