Configuring PyCharm
Answered
I'm trying to code with the same screen the instructor here is using. He goes into elementary detail on how to download files, but he completely skips his configuration of his display and what to click on within PyCharm.

I don't see his options in my copy of PyCharm, either. I'm using 3.5 and he might be using 3.4. Ultimately, I want to code on the left and see the output screen run on the right.
Can anyone take me step by step on how to get my screen to look like his? If it's already been answered, please forward me to the correct forum.

Hi
You need to click a cogwheel of the needed tool window (Run in this case) and select Move to
Thank you for your help. Here is what I am looking at.
Ok, let's clear this up.
1) Do not store your project in .idea folder. It's better to store it in your project directory (as I can see it is HelloPython).
2) This is not a Python file. Take a look at the extension of the file. It is .iml, but should be .py
3) Event Log doesn't show the output of your code. It is for IDE related messages and warnings.
Please go through this tutorial https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/creating-and-running-your-first-python-project.html
It will get you through the main steps to create and run your first project in PyCharm.
Let me know should you have any questions.
Thank you for the link! I had not created a file at all, only the directory! All seems to be working now!
