Remember to:

  • Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
  • Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
  • Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Was it not the Community Edition you downloaded?

#

There's at least two different downloads

#

"Community Edition" is below "Professional Edition"

@empty glen I use pycharm every day. and if you're just getting started with python, I would not use it.

empty glen
#

why?

cunning swan
# empty glen why?

the way it manages environments (which you don't know what those are yet) is often confusing for beginners. I recommend starting by using a plain text editor (like notepad++ or sublime) and running everything from a terminal

#

You can also use IDLE, which gets installed alongside python
Its a simple editor for beginners

empty glen
#

im just gonna keep pycharm installed because ill need it soon

fleet briar
#

Stelercus does make a good point though, learning an IDE like Pycharm can add extra complexity to the process as a beginner

#

If you feel overwhelmed try IDLE as suggested or writing the code in another text editor, lots of them have syntax highlighting
