thanks, and what editor is the teacher using?

anonymous · Answer

He is using IDLE. its  a development environment for python , which is actually written in python language itself

anonymous · Answer

but I am opening IDLE and i can only the Shell window, i can`t find the editor window

anonymous · Answer

Open Idle and then go to File > New Window. That will open the text editor. Now after you have composed your code, hit F5 to save and run teh code. this should help.
