Introduction

I recently purchased a Raspberry Pi 3 and introduced Raspbian. I bought it, but it didn't have a purpose, so I'm going to learn the basics of Python, which is popular now. When I created a .py file and opened it, an application called Thonny was launched.

What's this? It seems that it can be used not only on Linux but also on Mac and Windows like an IDE for Python. Above all, it's so simple that no explanation is needed. I installed it on Windows and used it as a trial.

Thonny

Feature

python is included so you can use it immediately (you can also use the version of Python you already have)
Step execution is possible
You can check the contents in the list of variables
It also warns you of syntax errors in an easy-to-understand manner
It also completes the code
External plugins available

Dissatisfaction

Step execution is possible, but it is always a good idea to execute sequentially from the top (no breakpoints)
I can't see the variable watch in real time (the value at the end of processing is displayed)
The installation screen smells like a virus (laughs)

Therefore, it cannot be used for a huge program. However, it is very suitable for practice. A Python integrated development environment for beginners to describe Thonny in one word

There are many IDEs for Python, but it is recommended that you first try using this and move to PyScripter etc. if you are not satisfied.

How to install the package

To install and manage packaged software written in Python I need to install a package management system called pip, Since pip is included in Python itself in Python 3.4 and later, you can use it immediately.

Let's try introducing the Requests package that can easily handle HTTP requests.

Open Tools-> Open system shell ...
Type pip install requests to install the Request package
Check Tools-> Manage Packages to see if there is a request

~~ Make the following settings on the command line ~~

~~ Launch a command prompt and go to the path where Thonny is installed. ~~ C: \> cd C: \ Users \ [User name] \ AppData \ Local \ Programs \ Thonny \

Type ~~ python -m pip install requests. ~~ キャプチャ.PNG ~~

Windows Thonny seems to refer to C: \ Users \ [user-folder] \ .thonny \ BundledPython36.

Method completion

You can complete with Ctrl + Space or TAB.

I just want to assign TAB to the tab function, but which is the default?
