Hmm, that would probably be us! Any question on Python or
its standard library or programming in general is welcome.

They obviously expect you to use an IDE of some sort - IDLE comes with
Python but there are many others. They all have a standard menu with
File->New or File->Open items. If in doubt gicve us a shout for
recommendations. But as a beginner, IDLE (sometimes called "Python GUI"
on Windows for some reason!) should be fine.
