good editor for python on windows? #1
I've looked on the forum and came up short while trying to find any opinions of a good editor program to run with python 3.x for windows:Not-Amused:
I was going to go with "emacs" but i cant seem to find a publisher that seems legit.. :Slant:
With there being so many to choose from I cant seem to figure out how to narrow the choices down to a solid working program..
I'm sure i sound like a complete noob(which in fact i am), But If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be grateful.

It's mainly personal preference. You can write program in windows notepad if you want. Personally, I don't need anything fancy to write code, I use notepad++ and as long as it will highlight the syntax for me, it's good enough for me, but that's just my personal opinion.

thanks, I did end up going with notepad++. Still working my way up to learning how to save and establish a good grasp on the concept. Some of the things i am finding online are a bit confusing, but I'm sure I'll figure it all out soon enough.

Since you are a beginner in programming, so it is wise for you to choose a text editor that is beginner friendly, Texteditors as Notepad + + or Sublime Text 3.2 emphasizes especially newbie friendly but virtually all text editors are fine, what matters here is how you enjoy working with text editor shoulder and confidence to where you are with it. Advise you to try different text editors and find out which one is right for you!

My advice... avoid IDEs when learning (specially the ones come with auto-complete feature), use a simple text editor, I use notepad++ (the best IMHO), and sometimes I use the GUI tool that comes with Python (Start->Pythonx.x->Python GUI) when I am on a machine that has no notepad++

Good luck

I greatly appreciate the input guys. I did in fact go with notepad++. Now i'm just trying to figure out how to use everything correctly in order to build some things. i've been leaning heavily towards video tutorials since they explain/show the terminology and seem to speed up the learning process for me. codecadamey seems to have a lot of great stuff for beginners like myself.
