I haven't coded anything in about a decade now (I ended up moving from CS to math), but decided to give this all a shot.
Since I don't have any sort of environment or anything to work in, I just downloaded Python and am trying to wrangle Notepad++, the Windows Shell, and the Python interpreter into helping me remember what I'm doing.
I really highly recommend using VSCode or PyCharm Community Edition (both free of charge). It'll make your life a lot easier out of the box.
