hello everyone today we're going to
0:01
install the latest version of python
0:04
onto a windows 10 machine
0:06
the first thing that we're going to want
0:08
to do is open up our browser
0:10
i'm using firefox but you can use any
0:12
browser that you choose
0:13
what's really important is you go to
0:19
once we're there we'll mouse over
0:21
downloads then you'll see the latest
0:23
version of python available to you
0:26
currently that's version 3.9.6
0:29
but if you're viewing this video at a
0:30
later date your version number might be
0:32
higher and that's okay
0:34
you want to click the link and then save
0:37
that'll download the installer to your
0:41
you can browse to your downloads
0:44
a shortcut if your browser has one
0:48
you can see that just took me to my
0:51
now when you're there just double left
0:52
click the python installer
0:56
and you want to make sure that you have
0:57
add python 3.9 to path
1:00
now you can just click install now but
1:03
have a multi-user system that want other
1:06
people to be able to use
1:08
python which is one of the common use
1:11
there is this checkbox for install for
1:15
there are other options here but most
1:17
new users don't need to worry about
1:20
so just back up click install now
1:23
and then after about 10 to 20 seconds
1:27
will open up the command prompt to run
1:31
now i have a command prompt icon but if
1:34
you can simply go to search and type cmd
1:38
again those are the letters c m d and
1:41
and that will open your command prompt
1:44
so with the command prompt open
1:46
i'm going to type python version
1:49
and when i hit enter it should show us
1:53
and then it does that means that python
1:55
has been successfully installed
1:57
now if you want to open the python
1:58
interpreter you can also type python
2:02
or just pi for short and now i'm in
2:06
write a simple program here
2:16
and it ran that's actually the truth
2:18
