How to setup Python on Mac

On a Mac system, it is very straight-forward. All you need to do is open Launchpad and search for Terminal , and in the terminal, type Python and boom, it will give you an output with the Python version.

First, Xcode doesn’t support python . Even if you use custom workflows it’ll be a nightmare to get a work around. Second, use pycharm if you want a good python IDE.

To do this, locate the Python script file in the Finder, right-click, and use “Get Info” to find the path name.
