I asked tutor how to get to the black screen to run Python programs. I
got a three step answer but could not get step 1. to work;
1.
XP: Start > Run > type "cmd" > OK
C:\Documents and Settings
The above line is where I wind up & I cannot get out of it. I can get
into it with Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
The below lines I have not yet gotten to. What is 'cd'?
2.
then cd to the folder where you put the script:
C:\> cd C:\mypython\
'cd'?
3.
then run the program by typing "python blah.py"
C:\mypython\> python blah.py
