If you have a script open in the Windows version of R, you can run a line (or section of highlighted code) in the shell by hitting CTRL-R (believe it's command-enter in apple version). Is there similar functionality for IDLE? Many thanks
Ctrl-r. Reverse-search through command history. The reverse-search can be particularly useful. Recall that in the previous section we defined a function called square . Let's reverse-search our Python history from a new IPython shell and find this definition again.
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.
IDLE with IdleX supports the ability to run a single line of code or a selection by pressing F9. It also has subCodes which allows you to run code in between '##' comments. It has the same effect as highlighting a lot of code for execution, but you don't need to keep highlighting each time.
IDLE is Python's Integrated Development and Learning Environment.
No
In the shortcut key list in IDLE, in Options > Configure IDLE > Keys, in the Action - Key(s) list, one does not find any shortcut key for executing selected code.
