Basic terminal commands and navigation

In order to start using python (or any programming language) you need to know a few very important things about your computer:

• Where are files located on my system?

• How to use a terminal to navigate between folders to find the files you want to use?

Tutorials

• For Windows users: A windows command prompt primer

• For Linux/Mac users (recommended for windows users as well): An introduction to the Linux terminal

Learning checklist (all platforms)
