Python needs a recent Windows, macOS or Linux.
The worked solution
Have you tried it?
Work it out on paper first. It is fine to get stuck or make a mistake: that is how we learn. When you are ready, compare your working with the solution.
- (a) Yes. It is a recent system with enough memory and space.
- (b) No. Current versions of Python do not support Windows 7.
- (c) Not directly. It needs the Linux environment of the Chromebook turned on first. Then the Linux steps work.
- (d) Yes. Most Linux systems already have Python 3.
Answer: (a) and (d). (c) works after the Linux environment is turned on.
