Where to use ipython and where is ipthon shell?

Question

I've installed ipython, but I don't know how to use it. Where could I find ipython shell?

Answer 1

To use ipython, just go to the command line, and run the command ipython.

Answer 2

open up your terminal, type ipython and run.

EDIT: have you set ipython in your environment variables? Here is an initial configurations guide by ipython.org

EDIT: maybe you also need to install setuptools from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools
