                             PROGRAMMING IN PYTHON

                      Python has two basic programming modes—Script Mode and Interactive Mode.

                           Working in Interactive Mode

                      Interactive  Mode  is  a  command  line  shell which gives  immediate  result  for each  command.  In
                      Interactive mode,  we type one command at a time. Python executes the given command and gives
                      the output.
                      Follow these steps to start Python and work in Interactive Mode:

                      Step 1:   Click on Start button.
                      Step 2:   Scroll down the list of programs and click on Python 3.8 folder.

                      The main  IDLE window appears. IDLE stands for  Integrated Development and Learning
                      Environment. It is a code editor which helps you to write and execute Python programs in the
                      editor itself.
