Fellow Penguins,

1. I might not be at the next NLUG meeting so have attached a reference on how to dual boot Linux mint and Windows 10.  It might be of particular interest to Boris. 

https://itsfoss.com/guide-install-linux-mint-16-dual-boot-windows/  https://itsfoss.com/guide-install-linux-mint-16-dual-boot-windows/

2.  I've recently started on Python programming using version 3.6.7. Calling up python3.6 on the terminal followed by

>>>print( 'Hello Nigel' )  works.  However the editor version saved as "hello" in a folder called Python36 doesn't.

>>> Python36 hello
File "<stdin>", line 1
Python36 hello
^

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Do I have to set up a path to Python36?   My reference book doesn't mention that.  What exactly do I have to type to get this to work?  Any polite advice welcome.

See you soon.

Nigel
