Python is known to be one of the easiest programming languages to learn. Hence, computer science students or those who are dipping their toes into programming will benefit from Python Tutor, an interactive free-to-download educational app for mastering the language’s fundamentals in a hands-on manner.

Practice your programming skills

On top of saving visualization sessions, Python Tutor allows for the execution of Python scripts and the export of the output screen, stacks and heaps, or scripts. You can also simultaneously display the Python Visualizer and Python Shell on your screen and view multiple files at once in the latter. 

In addition, the program includes sample scripts and an option to pin one on the Start menu. You can share scripts on Outlook too, so the instructor can provide feedback on your work. However, some users may deem the app as not beginner-friendly or struggle with executing a script.

For up-and-coming programmers

In sum, Python Tutor serves as a practice ground for solidifying your Python programming skills. The best part about this app is you can pin a script to your Start menu, making it easier to access during practice sessions. Unfortunately, users might experience difficulty in script execution.
