How to run Python program in Ubuntu?

Question

Can anyone tell me how to run the Python program in Ubuntu?

Answer 1

You can run your python program by calling the Interpreter:

For Python 2: python <filename>.py

For Python 3: python3 <filename>.py

Or, you can call the Interpreter through the script with the help of the below steps:

Step 1: You have to keep one thing in mind that the first line of the file must have #!/usr/bin/env python

Step 2: Now, you have to make your file executable with the help of the code chmod +x <filename>.py

Step 3: Finally, you can execute your file as ./<filename>.py
