Question

While doing the readings ive been doing all the examples but now at creating my own functions and writing multiple lines of code i dont know how to do it without interpreting it line by line

Answer 1

If you're in the IDLE interpreter window, go to File->New Window. That opens up a new text file for editing. Type some code, then save the file. I put all my python code in a "python" directory, then subdirectories under there for what project I'm doing (e.g. a separate dir for each problem set). Once you save your file you can hit F5, or Run->Run Module, to execute your code in the interpreter window. When you make changes to the file, hit F5 again to run the new changes.
