# Installing pycharm
|
||||
|
||||
Depending on the platform you use, you can install Pycharm in multiple ways.
|
||||
The computers in the classroom come with Pycharm installed but if you want to continue working from home you can follow the instructions [here](https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/#section=windows).
|
||||
|
||||
If you run Windows at home you will probably need to install python as well.
|
||||
Download the latest version from [here](https://www.python.org/downloads/).
|
||||
On Linux and Mac OSX there will probably be some version of python installed.
|
||||
From a terminal you can check the version that's installed by executing the following commmands.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
waldek@metal:~$ python3 --version
|
||||
Python 3.9.2
|
||||
waldek@metal:~$

This is done with the built-in `input` function.

Two *extra* things might look new to you here.

First the `import time` and `time.sleep(1)`, can you tell me what it does?

Infinite loops are a cornerstone of modern programming.
|
||||
While they might look scary, don't overthink it, you'll get used to them very quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
Logical procedures can be drawn out with flow charts.
|
||||
An example can be seen in the image below.

⛑ **When testing out an infinite loop it's sometimes handy to insert a `time.sleep` in it to slow down the execution a bit so you can wrap your head around what's happening.**
