An awesome editor for an awesome language

“

- [Instructor] An awesome programming language like Python deserves an equally awesome code editor and IDE. By now you've probably heard about Visual Studio code and maybe you're already using it for some of your projects. VS code has quickly become one of the go-to choices for many Python developers because of the fantastic support it provides for the language right out of the box. You can execute Python code right from within the editor using either the Python interpreter to run code line by line or by using the built-in terminal to execute individual program files. With the Microsoft supply Python extension installed, you get features such as an integrated debugger that lets you step through code and examine variables and expressions, along with great editor features like (mumbles) and statement completion and even some advanced features like code refactoring and formatting.
