Du kan ?pne iPython p? to m?ter. Den ene er ? ?pne et terminalvindu,
(fra Applications/Utilities eller ved ? s?ke etter terminal med
Command-space). og skrive kommandoen ipython i terminalvinduet. Den
andre er ? ?pne Anaconda navigator fra Applications (Programmer):
Spyder er en s?kalt IDE (Integrated Developer Environment), som
inneholder det du trenger for ? skrive og kj?re Python-programmer. Bruk
og utseende er litt forskjellig fra det dere vil se p?? forelesninger og
Linux-maskinene p??Universitetet, s? vi anbefaler prim?rt ? bruke en
vanlig editor og terminalvindu, men Spyder er ogs? en bra l?sning. Her
er en kort innf?ring i hvordan det brukes.
The classical way to use a computer is through a command-line window,
often called a terminal. Using the keyboard, one writes commands that
the computer will understand and execute. Since graphical
user-interfaces (GUIs) are now the dominating way to use computers, many
people have never used or even seen a command-line interface. The
terminal has the obvious disadvantage that the user must remember a
large number of commands, while in a GUI system the available programs
and commands are typically visible as icons or in menus. However, if one
gets past the first threshold of memorizing a few commands, the terminal
is a very efficient way to use a computer.
