How uninstall IDLE?

[NisseMax]

Hello everybody,

I installed python IDLE a while back ago when I didn't know about PyCharm and now that I don't use IDLE anymore I'm wondering if I can uninstall the idle without causing any problem with PyCharm. I mean is it necessary to have IDLE in order to be able to use PyCharm?

How do I proceed with uninstalling everything associated with python IDLE? Sorry if I'm asking a dumb question but I'm not that experienced when it comes to programming and using softwares/IDE's for programming.

IDLE comes with Python, so I imagine you can't uninstall it. Why would you need to? It's not going to stop you using PyCharm or any other tools.

Hi ndc85430!

It's as simple as that don't to have anything unused installed on my computer. That's the only reason to why. I thought that idle is just a program you use to type python code on. But you're saying that IDLE comes with python. What do you mean by that?

Idle is written with python, by installing python it includes an idle module that when run is idle.

I personally think that this is noble principle but unattainable.
