To help VSCode function well with Python, we recommend installing the Python Extensions. To do this, take the following steps:

  1. Choose the File Menu
  2. Choose Preferences
  3. Then Select Extensions
  4. In the new window, choose the Install button for Python
  5. Once the Extensions are installed, you may be prompted to select your Python Interpreter
    • If you do not see this prompt, you can still open the Python Interpreter option
      • Press CONTROL+SHIFT+P which will open the preferences command
  6. Type python interpreter, and choose Python: Select Interpreter
  7. Choose the interpreter appropriate for your course (Eg: misy350 will choose the one in the MISY350 folder)
  8. You can now open your integrated Terminal
  9. Right-click on your folder and choose Open in Integrated Terminal
