Hi PF!

I am running VS Code for python on Ubuntu. Is there a way to execute a specific python line? As I currently have it set up, on the terminal input at the bottom of the screen, I can only work through the terminal, so a command like print('hello world') won't do anything.

THanks so mcuh!

If you have python installed and your PATH set up properly, simply typing “python” in your terminal should start the interpreter.
