How to easily run a python script from Visual Studio

Is there a way to easily run a currently active python file in Visual Studio? I'm used to Notepad++ in which I had customized it to run an active python file in cmd on ctrl+r which made testing code very easy and fast. If there was something similar I could do for Visual Studio, that would be wonderful.

Thanks!

Download the extension 'Code Runner'. You may need to restart visual studio code after loading. Open your script in an editor window. Hit the keys 'control-alt-n' and your script should run. I just checked it on my mac and it ran fine.
