ptpython: Start a REPL (interactive shell).
$ ptpython
try on your machine
The command "ptpython" launches the ptpython interactive shell.
ptpython is an enhanced version of the default Python interactive shell that offers a more powerful and feature-rich environment for interactive Python programming. It provides features such as syntax highlighting, code completion, multiline editing, history navigation, and more.
When you run the "ptpython" command, it starts the ptpython shell, allowing you to enter Python code interactively, execute it, and view the results in real-time. This can be useful for quickly trying out code snippets, testing functions, and exploring the behavior of various Python modules.
