pi@raspberrypi ~ $By the Way: Script Storage Location
It is a good idea to store your Python scripts in a standard location. This book uses the
subdirectory /home/pi/py3prog.Running a Python Script in IDLE
To run the sample.py script in IDLE, start IDLE and in the main interactive mode window, either
press the key combination Ctrl+O or select the File menu and then Open. The Open window appears.
Navigate to the location of the Python script. In this case, sample.py is located in
/home/pi/py3prog, as shown in Figure 3.8. Click the script to select it and then click the Open
button.
