Navigating To the Directory Step 1: Navigating to the script location. Let’s start with the first way which is navigating to the directory. Let’s try to execute our script “Tut1.py” using both the above mentioned ways. The interpreter will use the location path to find the script and then execute it. Invoke the Python interpreter with the location of your script.In your command prompt, navigate to the directory where your scripts are saved and then execute them using Python interpreter.
#Run a python script from terminal how to#
