Python files typically use the .py
file extension. This extension helps identify the file as a Python script, allowing interpreters to understand and execute the code within.
Here are some additional points to consider:
.py
is the standard extension for Python files, but there are others, such as.pyw
for scripts that run without a console window.- The file extension is crucial for Python interpreters to recognize the file as containing Python code.
- When saving a Python file, ensure you use the correct extension to ensure proper execution.
