Hmm yes. But it's not recommended. Notepad is not actually for coding. You can use different free as well as paid IDEs. You can Google them. Some of popular IDEs are Visual Studio, Atom, WebStorm etc. For quick code editing, use editors like sublime and Notepad++😉

Chimuanya As you seem to be a complete beginner, you'll need to follow some tutorial on YouTube about how to code and run python. Complete guide using text is quite complicated task and even doesn't ensures that the learner understood that or not. Before that, If you are a windows user, Move to this URL and download python3 https://www.python.org/downloads/ And install it on your PC. After this, Follow this YouTube tutorial about 3 ways to run a python code. https://youtu.be/skIy7ZhT_tk

Go to start menu, and search for "Command Prompt" And then click on the first option. CMD will open. CMD is a shell of windows. CMD has been improved and been upgraded to powershell.
