How to install Python on Mac OS and How to write and run or run your first Python program on Mac OS will be covered in this video.
We start by installing Python 3, then review 3 ways to write and run a Python program on Mac.
The 3 ways to write and run a Python program covered in this video are:
1. Use IDLE, which is an IDE that comes with the Python installation.
2. Use any text editor (in my case I use Atom) to write a Python program, then run the program using the Terminal window.
3. Using Visual Studio Code (or simple VS Code), which is considered one of the best IDEs for Python.

Installing Python 3 on Mac can be confusing due to the existence of Python 2 which comes pre-installed on all Mac OS. However, Python 2 and Python 3 can coexist on the same machine, so we do not need to uninstall Python 2 before installing Python 3.

To install Python 3, there are no prerequisites and the installation is quite simple.
Running your Python code can be confusing for beginners, so in this video we cover 3 different ways or 3 different editors that can be used to start writing and running Python code.

When running Python code through IDLE, it is essential to run the RUN command from the text editor and then view the output in the IDLE interpreter.
While the text editor does not have the functionality to run the program by itself, we use the Terminal window to run the program.
Visual Studio Code (or simple VS Code) along with PyCharm, Jupiter Notebook and a few others are considered one of the best IDEs for Python. That's why in this video we show how VS Code can be used to write and run a Python program.

The video aims to help beginners get started installing the Python programming language on Mac and show several ways to start writing and running Python code.
