Here is how to install Python on MAC OS. So the
thing is that right now I don't have a MAC
computer available. So I can't show you the hands
on instructions for the specific installation.
However, don't worry, because I'm going to explain
everything in detail. And then you won't have any
problem following the course. Because once you
have installed Python successfully, the course is
exactly the same whether you use Windows, Linux,
or MAC OS, and actually Linux and MAC OS are very
similar. So the first thing you do is you go on
python.org/downloads. Here, you should have
download the latest version for MAC OS, okay, it's
going to detect automatically your operating
system. If not, you can just go here looking for
Python with a different OS, you just click on MAC
OS, okay, latest version, and you can go down and
then install. So you have the MAC OS installed.
Okay, so I'm going to go back here. So you simply
click on that Download button to download the
Python 3 version. So whatever version, it
doesn't really matter. The only important thing is
that you have Python 3, okay for this course
is going to be fine. So download the latest
version of Python 3 from python.org. You may
have to click on allow if you get a pop up asking
you if you allow downloads from python.org. So
click on allow. Then find the installer on your
Downloads folder and double click on it, you will
have several steps for the installation. Just
click on Continue, Agree, Install etc. For each
step, you may also have to provide your password
to continue. Once the installation is done. Maybe
you will be asked to remove the Python installed,
you can remove it because you don't need it
anymore. And this just doesn't really matter for
Python at all. Okay, so just remove it if you want
to, then open a terminal. So you can go on your
Applications, Utilities, and Terminal. In the
Terminal, you type python3, and then press
enter. You should see the Python version you have
and then three angle brackets where you can write
some text. You can just go and type hello with
quotes like these double quotes and then press
enter. You should see hello printed below. If you
have this, then you're ready for the following and
you can go to the level one of the course.
