00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,000
Here is how to install Python on Mac OS.

2
00:00:03,001 --> 00:00:07,000
So the thing is that right now I
don't have a Mac computer available,

3
00:00:07,001 --> 00:00:12,000
so I can't show you the hands-on
instructions for this specific installation.

4
00:00:12,001 --> 00:00:16,000
However, don't worry because I'm
going to explain everything in detail

5
00:00:16,001 --> 00:00:19,000
and then you won't have any
problem following the course

6
00:00:19,001 --> 00:00:22,000
because once you have
installed Python successfully,

7
00:00:22,001 --> 00:00:28,000
the course is exactly the same whether
you use Windows, Linux or Mac OS.

8
00:00:28,001 --> 00:00:31,000
And actually, Linux and
Mac OS are very similar.

9
00:00:31,001 --> 00:00:36,000
So the first thing you do is
you go on python.org/download.

10
00:00:36,001 --> 00:00:40,000
Here you should have downloaded
the latest version for Mac OS.

11
00:00:40,001 --> 00:00:43,000
It's going to detect automatically
your operating system.

12
00:00:43,001 --> 00:00:48,000
If not, you can just go here looking
for Python with a different OS.

13
00:00:48,001 --> 00:00:52,000
Just click on Mac OS, the latest version,

14
00:00:52,001 --> 00:00:57,000
and you can go down and then
install so you have the Mac OS installer.

15
00:00:57,001 --> 00:01:01,000
Okay, so I'm going to go back here.

16
00:01:01,001 --> 00:01:07,000
So you simply click on that download
button to download the Python 3 version.

17
00:01:07,001 --> 00:01:10,000
So whatever version,
it doesn't really matter.

18
00:01:10,001 --> 00:01:13,000
The only important thing
is that you have Python 3.

19
00:01:13,001 --> 00:01:16,000
Okay, for this course
it's going to be fine.

20
00:01:16,001 --> 00:01:21,000
So download the latest version
of Python 3 from python.org.

21
00:01:21,001 --> 00:01:25,000
You may have to click
on allow if you get a pop-up

22
00:01:25,001 --> 00:01:28,000
asking you if you allow
downloads from python.org.

23
00:01:28,001 --> 00:01:30,000
So click on allow.

24
00:01:30,001 --> 00:01:36,000
Then find the installer on your
downloads folder and double click on it.

25
00:01:36,001 --> 00:01:39,000
You will have several
steps for the installation.

26
00:01:39,001 --> 00:01:44,000
Just click on continue, agree,
install, etc. for each step.

27
00:01:44,001 --> 00:01:48,000
You may also have to provide
your password to continue.

28
00:01:48,001 --> 00:01:50,812
Once the installation
is done, maybe you

29
00:01:50,824 --> 00:01:54,000
will be asked to remove
the Python installer.

30
00:01:54,001 --> 00:01:56,000
You can remove it because
you don't need it anymore.

31
00:01:56,001 --> 00:02:00,000
And this doesn't really
matter for Python at all.

32
00:02:00,001 --> 00:02:02,000
Okay, so just remove it if you want to.

33
00:02:02,001 --> 00:02:04,000
Then open the terminal.

34
00:02:04,001 --> 00:02:08,000
So you can go on your
applications, utilities, and terminal.

35
00:02:08,001 --> 00:02:14,000
In the terminal, you type
python3 and then press enter.

36
00:02:14,001 --> 00:02:17,000
You should see the Python version you have

37
00:02:17,001 --> 00:02:22,000
and then three angle brackets
where you can write some texts.

38
00:02:22,001 --> 00:02:26,000
You can just go and
type hello with quotes like

39
00:02:26,001 --> 00:02:28,000
these, double quotes,
and then press enter.

40
00:02:28,001 --> 00:02:30,000
You should see hello printed below.

41
00:02:30,001 --> 00:02:34,000
If you have this, then
you're ready for the following

42
00:02:34,001 --> 00:02:37,000
and you can go to the
level one of the course.
