Python Script
To compose and execute programs in this manner, you perform the following steps:
1. Select the option New File from the File menu of the shell window.
2. In the new file, enter Python expressions or statements on separate lines, in the order in which you want Python to
execute them.
3. At any point, you may save the file by selecting File/Save. If you do this, you should use a . py extension. For example,
your first program file might be named myprogram.py.
4. To run this file of code as a Python script, select Run Module from the Run menu or press the F5 key
Installation of Pycharm

How python interpreter works?
Whether you are running Python code as a script or interactively in a shell, the Python
interpreter does a great deal of work to carry out the instructions in your program
Steps:
1. The interpreter reads a Python expression or statement, also called the source code, and verifies that it is
well formed. In this step, the interpreter behaves like a strict English teacher who rejects any sentence that
does not adhere to the grammar rules, or syntax, of the language. As soon as the interpreter encounters
such an error, it halts translation with an error message.
2. If a Python expression is well formed, the interpreter then translates it to an equivalent form in a low-
level language called byte code. When the interpreter runs a script, it completely translates it to byte code.
3. This byte code is next sent to another software component, called the Python virtual machine (PVM),
where it is executed. If another error occurs during this step, execution also halts with an error message
