How to execute Python script in Windows?

To execute a Python script in Windows, you can follow these steps:

1. Install Python:
   If you haven't already, download and install Python from the official website (https://www.python.org/downloads/). Make sure to add Python to your system's PATH during installation.

2. Write Your Python Script:
   Use a text editor or an integrated development environment (IDE) to write your Python script. Save the script with a .py extension.

3. Open Command Prompt:
   Press Win + R to open the Run dialog, type cmd, and press Enter. This will open the Command Prompt.

4. Navigate to Script Directory:
   Use the cd command to navigate to the directory where your Python script is located.

   For example, if your script is located in C:\Users\YourUsername\Documents, you would use:

   bashCopy code
   cd C:\Users\YourUsername\Documents
   
   

5. Execute Python Script:
   In the Command Prompt, use the python command followed by the name of your Python script to execute it. For example:

   Copy code
   python my_script.py
   
   

   If you have multiple versions of Python installed, you can use python3 or specify the full path to the Python executable, such as C:\Python39\python.exe.

6. View Script Output:
   The output of your Python script will be displayed in the Command Prompt.

That's it! Your Python script should now be executed, and you'll see the output in the Command Prompt window.

Note: If you encounter errors related to Python not being recognized as a command, make sure that Python is added to your system's PATH. If not, you might need to close and reopen the Command Prompt after installing Python or manually add the Python installation directory to the PATH environment variable.

Remember that if your script requires specific modules, you might need to install them using the pip command before running the script.
