This repository contains the exercises from https://github.com/exercism/python providing small and well-defined problems complete with tests and solutions.

The excercises are mostly unchanged, this repo exists only to make using them as straightforward as possible. You don't need to install anything other than Python.

   Alternatively you can download the code from https://github.com/Alexander-N/python-exercises/archive/master.zip

3. Change into the directory of your exercise

   cd python-exercises/hello-world
   

4. Edit hello_world.py to solve the exercise. Look at README.md and test.py to find out what to do.

   python3 test.py
   

   It is also possible to run a specific test, e.g.

   python3 test.py HelloWorldTests.test_hello
