To begin programming in Python, you'll first need to install it.

Windows and Mac OS X

Go to python.org and download the windows/mac installer.

Linux/Unix

Your distribution should come prepackaged with Python, type which python at the terminal make sure you have it. If nothing comes up, check your distribution's documentation or go to Python.org and build the package from source.

If you have any trouble, remember there are plenty of places you can go for help.
