Python command interpreter

Python Command Interpreter

You can launch the Python command interpreter that is delivered with Simcenter Amesim from the Tools menu.

Alternatively, you can use the shell scripts provided with Simcenter Amesim. They are located as follows:

• Under Windows: %AME%\python.bat

• Under Linux: $AME/python.sh

These scripts will start the Python command interpreter, which will display the following message:

Copy
