How to Install IDLE ( Python tool) in ubuntu / debian Linux

IDLE is an integrated development environment for Python, which is bundled with python for Windows since 2.3. It is not included in the python included with most of Linux distributions. It is completely written in Python and the Tkinter GUI toolkit.

For installing IDLE in ubuntu

$sudo apt-get install idle3 ( for python3 users)
$sudo apt-get install idle idle-python2.6 (for old version python)
