Notepad++ won't work with Python -

i'm getting programming , took common advice of using free text editor python. seem running problem , i've tried far hasn't worked.

i downloaded anaconda url , whenever put location of python.exe run bar: c:\users\home\anaconda2\python.exe python console pop up. i've tried adding: "$(full_current_path)" end 1 user had suggested, opens console , closes after. idea i'm doing wrong?

first, create space projects. c:\projects it's easy find. create folder specific work. i'd c:\projects\learningpython.

now, create new file , save c:\projects\learningpython\hello-world.py

in file put line

print('hello world!') 

then click save.

now open command prompt (enter cmd in run bar)

now enter in command prompt:

python c:\projects\learningpython\hello-world.py 

hopefully work you. let me know if not see 'hello world' appear on command prompt.
