Hi. I'm in a programming class and I'm starting python. Is there an accessible version of the python shell, or any iteration of any python handler at all that works even a little bit?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I know very little about python and am in need of a quick fix so I can start programming for this class.

Have you tried python before asking this? Just typing python from the command line (if you're on windows), works fine, if you've already added it to the path. You can type in code there to test. I regularly use dir and help in there, along with quick bits of code to check something.
