Executing Python script on the command line

Let's work through an example of how we can use Python on the command line without needing to open up a GUI like Jupyter Notebook or Spyder. Interacting with Python on the command line is faster and more efficient than using a GUI. Here, we will create a Python file and execute it using our native Python, all without leaving the bash terminal.
