Requirements
- The Python 2 interpreter running on your computer, any operating system. The interpreter is available for free at http://python.org/download/.
- A Python development environment. Perhaps your favorite environment can be made to be Python-aware. The "Idle" development environment comes into your computer when you bring in the Python interpreter. Use that if you don't already have a favorite environment.
