I'm also a beginner in Python, but from my own experience the
interactive interpreter is great for experimenting with new modules
and output formatting because it allows you to see the immediate
output of a function before you write it into your program.  The
immediate result is that you'll see any errors and be able to fix them
before they end up in your script.
