Python - I can't see my what my error is because the window disappears immediately

Question

I am pretty new to Python and I have been pretty annoyed with this problem. I am not sure if this matters, but I run my .py file with Python 2.7.6 with python installed on m

Answer 1

Yes, as @shortfellow said, running it from the terminal should work:

python your_file.py

Another tip that helps in Python, if you are having a hard time with errors, is to use iPython for debugging/testing code on the spot. You can give it a try.

Answer 2

You should run it from command window/terminal instead of double clicking on the file.
