Idle. Purely because I don't do much programming and all I need is a text editor with a built in command line to test ideas and check completed modules. The types of things I use python for are: - semi-quick scripts for one-off automation problems that bash scripting can't solve, - small programs to explore computer or math's based problems. e.g. sorting algorithms, genetic algorithms, Fourier transforms of waves to analyze frequency distributions (Trying to make a white/pink noise generator and ran it's output into the computer's soundcard) - as a handy-dandy scientific calculator when I can't be bothered hunting down my RL scientific calculator :). Most of these have console-argument, interactive console (raw_input) or file-based input methods, with a text console output.
