Normally you can execute a Python script for example: python myscript.py
, but if you are in the interactive mode, how is it possible to execute a Python script on the filesystem?
>>> exec(File) ???
It should be possible to execute the script more than one time.
The interactive Python mode lets you run your script instantly via the command line without using any code editor or IDE. To run a Python script interactively, open up your command line and type python. Then hit Enter. You can then go ahead and write any Python code within the interactive mode.
There are two modes through which we can create and run Python scripts: interactive mode and script mode. The interactive mode involves running your codes directly on the Python shell which can be accessed from the terminal of the operating system. In the script mode, you have to create a file, give it a name with a .
The correct answer to the question “When Python is running in the interactive mode and displaying the chevron prompt (>>>) - what question is Python asking you” is option (a). What Python script would you like me to run?
To execute a file in IDLE, simply press the F5 key on your keyboard. You can also select Run → Run Module from the menu bar. Either option will restart the Python interpreter and then run the code that you've written with a fresh interpreter.
Use execfile('script.py') but it only work on python 2.x, if you are using 3.0 try this
import file
without the .py extension will do it, however __name__
will not be "__main__"
so if the script does any checks to see if it's being run interactively you'll need to bypass them.
Alternately, if you're wanting to have a look at the environment after the script runs try python -i script.py
EDIT: To load it again
file = reload(file)
