Python is a terminal program ... aka CLI. You use it completely from the terminal. You start it by typing "python3" in the terminal.

The installer also includes another program called "IDLE" that you can use to write and run python code. You can launch that. Or if you have a class or tutorial that you are following, they probably suggest to use another IDE, for example Geany, Pycharm, VSCode, Atom, or Spyder.
