How can I test commands in Python? (Eclipse/PyDev)

I just setup PyDev with Eclipse, but I'm a little confused. I thought that in the console I would be able to type certain commands such as print("Hello World") and directly observe the result without having to incorporate that in any sort of file.

The reason I would like this is because it would allow me to test functions real quick before using them in scripts, and I'm also following a tutorial which tells me to check if NumPy is installed by typing import NumPy in the command line.

Thanks!

Open up terminal and type python then it should load python shell then type import numpy

I have used pydev and find its easier just to use terminal to run small commands

There should be an interactive console in PyDev.

Try Ctrl+Alt+Enter or Cmd+Alt+Enter.
