 In order to start working with Python, you need to have a //Python distribution//​ installed on your local computer or on the remote Linux server(s) you work on. A //​distribution//​ provides a //Python interpreter//,​ and Python extensions (aka Python //modules// or //​packages//​). You may have several distributions installed on your computer and you need to know how to initialize them, and which one you are using at a given time (type ''​which python''​ on Linux to determine where the python executable is located) In order to start working with Python, you need to have a //Python distribution//​ installed on your local computer or on the remote Linux server(s) you work on.

-If you are using a Linux computer or a Mac, you should already have a **default python** installed.
