[abrew132]

whats a good, free script editor for python? I'm currently using the terminal but I'm tired of it because its no help with debugging. any suggestions?




(and also where it says "Programmer named tim" under my username, where do i go to change that???)

I use Spyder which also comes with Anaconda. Free and works for my uses very well.

The link for Anaconda is https://www.continuum.io/DOWNLOADS

Any questions, let me know.

PyCharm(Free Commuity) has most tool out of the box.
Spyder is good.
What Python people use is a personal mess of a lot of stuff 
I use Atom with terminal(cmder under Windows) and ptpython as REPL.

I use PyCharm for project development - Professional Edition (courtesy of employer); for small code snippets I use iPython, but for testing out ideas I prefer Jupyter notebook - it allows you to easily pick up previous sessions, and copying code from iPython is not fun.

I tend to end up using the Python IDLE because it's just quick.

Like snipp said, PyCharm is probably the one I'd recommend.
