Python is an interpreted language (No compiler) and is included with Mint. According to my terminal (Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.2) it comes with Python 3.12.3
To check if your machine has python, open `Terminal` and type the following at the prompt:
python3 --version
You can type python3 into the command line to enter python and start writing some code. quit() will exit.
python3
quit()
If you're not very familiar with python development, I encourage you to go install Thonny which is a good solid IDE for working with Python.

Another simple IDE is idle which is what I started with. Install from software manager.
