I'm a pythonista myself. The instructions to someone wanting to do Python are:

- find out what platform they are using (Unix, Windows, Mac, iDevice, Android etc)

- Ensure Python gets installed or is accessible (add in version 2 versus 3, 32 bit versus 64 bit)

- Work out what the text editor or "IDE" will be

- Enter the code (no gotos in Python)

- Run the code and view the output

While these hoops are nothing for you or me, they are significant for others. Note how people report A/B testing showing that extra steps towards various goals results in big dropoffs.

Incidentally this is what repl.it does with QBasic:

     > 10 print "hello"
     Parse failed: Syntax error at 1:10: Token("hello")
     > help
     => 0
